What is sodium acetate?
Sodium acetate (CH3COONa), often abbreviated NaOAc and also sodium ethanoate, is the sodium salt of acetic acid. This salt, which is also slightly alkaline, appears as a colorless diluting salt with a wide range of uses.
This colorless salt has a wide range of uses. Among its uses, it can be used in the textile industry to neutralize sulfuric acid waste. In the production of synthetic rubber, sodium acetate is used to prevent high heat. In the production of cotton (linen) clothes, sodium acetate is used to prevent the accumulation of static electricity. This salt is also used in photography and paint.
Also, in the electroless plating industry, this salt is used as a buffering agent in the plating solution.
Due to its better and cheaper efficiency, this salt is used in covering and sealing concrete to prevent water damage.
Sodium acetate is used in foods for flavoring, the most famous of which is the taste of salty vinegar chips.
This salt is obtained from the reaction of sodium bicarbonate in vinegar as a solution of sodium acetate in water. In other words, baking soda reacts with vinegar and becomes a solution of sodium acetate in water, which is accompanied by the release of carbonic acid in the form of carbon dioxide gas and water.
Although sodium acetate is a safe substance, its inhalation may cause a sore throat or its contact with the eyes may cause redness of the eyes.
