Test Items | Specifications |
Appearance | Colorless to light yellow liquid |
Content | 80% or 99.0% min |
Fe | 0.5ppm max |
Relative density | 1.295-1.35 |
Application:
TGA is used as a chemical depilatory and is still used as such, especially in salt forms, including calcium thioglycolate and sodium thioglycolate. TGA is the precursor to ammonium thioglycolate that is used for permanents. TGA and its derivatives break the disulfide bonds in the cortex of hair. One reforms these broken bonds in giving hair a "perm." Alternatively and more commonly, the process leads to depilation as is done commonly in leather processing. It is also used as an acidity indicator, manufacturing of thioglycolates, and in bacteriology for preparation of thioglycolate media. In fact thioglycolysis reactions used on condensed tannins to study their structure.
Packing and Storage:
Packing: In 250kg net plastic drum or IBC drum
Storage: Avoid strong oxidizing agents, Strong acids. Store in a cool, dry place. Store in a tightly closed container.
Safety information:
UN1940/Class 8/ Packing II
Detailed safety information is contained in each Material Safety Data Sheet, which can be obtained from our company.
