Cleaning Chemicals

One of the main uses of sodium thiosulphate is in photography. It is used as a fixing agent to remove the unexposed silver halide from photographic prints and films, making them stable and permanent. Sodium thiosulphate acts by converting the silver halide into a soluble complex, which can then be washed away. It is also used in the water treatment industry. It is added to swimming pools and spas to remove chlorine and other disinfectants, preventing skin and eye irritation. Additionally, it can be used to dechlorinate tap water for aquariums, as chlorine is harmful to fish and other aquatic organisms.
