The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a Sodium Hypophosphite manufacturing plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for Sodium Hypophosphite production, including the cost of Sodium Hypophosphite production, Sodium Hypophosphite plant cost, Sodium Hypophosphite production costs, and the overall Sodium Hypophosphite manufacturing plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a Sodium Hypophosphite production plant. These encompass manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.

Sodium Hypophosphite is the sodium salt of hypophosphorous acid that is used as a reducing agent in different chemical and commercial applications. It is used to treat water and reduce the metal content in the wastewater during purification. It is used in metal plating and processing methods, including copper, silver, and nickel plating etc. It also acts as a source of electrons and can be utilized for resin regeneration through the ion exchange method. It is used for coating non-metallic products, including ceramics, glass, plastics, etc. The films developed after coating sodium hypophosphite have hard surfaces and are abrasion-resistant. Also, it is used to produce electronics and petrochemicals.

Industrial Sodium Hypophosphite procurement is influenced by its application as a reducing agent in different market sectors, including chemical, petrochemical, ceramics, plastic, electronic, and metal industries. It is a reducing agent and its application in the production of non-metallic and metallic products boosts its demand in the plastic, ceramics, and metal processing units. Its utilization in wastewater treatment for reducing metal ion content, increases its demand in the global market. Its usage in synthetic resins contributes to its demand in the plastic and petrochemical sectors. All These factors directly impact its procurement in the global market.

Raw Material for Sodium Hypophosphite Production

According to the Sodium Hypophosphite manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Sodium Hypophosphite include White Phosphorus-Sodium Hydroxide-Carbon Dioxide.

Manufacturing Process of Sodium Hypophosphite

The extensive Sodium Hypophosphite production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

• From White Phosphorus, Sodium Hydroxide, and Carbon Dioxide: The manufacturing process of Sodium Hypophosphite involves a reaction between white phosphorous and sodium hydroxide. In this reaction, white phosphorus reacts with concentrated sodium hydroxide in the presence of carbon dioxide forming Sodium Hypophosphite as the final product.

Sodium hypophosphite is a white-colored chemical powder with the chemical formula NaH2PO2, and a molecular weight of 87.98 g/mol. It is a crystalline powder and has a characteristic saline-like taste and has no odor. Its density is 1.5 g/cm3 under a standard temperature of 25 °C, and its melting point is around 90 °C. It is soluble in water and can be dissolved in other chemical solvents as well. It is soluble in alcohols, including ethyl alcohol. Similarly, it can be dissolved in glycerin and is moderately soluble in ammonia and ammonium hydroxide. It is not entirely non-toxic, as it can release phosphine gas when heated or in reaction with acids. Its pH value ranges between 6 to 8 on the scale. It remains stable under normal conditions. It decomposes by heating at a high temperature, releasing phosphine gas into the air.
