Industrial sulfur is an important chemical product and basic industrial raw material, widely used in chemical, light industry, pesticide, rubber, dye, paper and other industrial sectors. Solid industrial sulfur is in the form of lump, powder, granule and flake, which is yellow or light yellow.
Use of sulfur
1. Food industry
For example, sulfur has the function of bleaching and antisepsis in food production. It is also an essential material for corn starch processing and also plays a very important role in dried fruit processing. It is used in food for antisepsis, pest control, bleaching and other fumigation. China’s regulations are limited to the fumigation of dried fruits, dried vegetables, vermicelli, preserved fruits and sugar.

2. Rubber industry
It can be used as an important rubber additive, in the production of natural rubber and various synthetic rubber, as a rubber curing agent, and also in the manufacture of phosphor; It is used for rubber vulcanization, manufacturing pesticides, sulfur fertilizers, dyes, black powder, etc. As a vulcanizing agent, it can prevent the surface of rubber products from frosting and improve the adhesion between steel and rubber. Because it is evenly distributed in the rubber and can ensure the vulcanization quality, it is the best rubber vulcanizing agent, so it is widely used in the carcass compound of tires, especially in all-steel radial tires, and also in the compound of rubber products such as electric cables, rubber rollers, rubber shoes, etc.

3. Pharmaceutical industry
Uses: used to control wheat rust, powdery mildew, rice blast, fruit powdery mildew, peach scab, cotton, red spider on fruit trees, etc; It is used to clean the body, remove dandruff, relieve itching, sterilize and disinfect. Long-term use can prevent skin itching, scabies, beriberi and other diseases.

4. Metallurgical industry
It is used in metallurgy, mineral processing, smelting of cemented carbide, manufacturing of explosives, bleaching of chemical fiber and sugar, and treatment of railway sleepers.

5. Electronic industry
It is used to produce various phosphors for television picture tubes and other cathode ray tubes in the electronic industry, and is also an advanced chemical reagent sulfur.

6. Chemical experiment
It is used to produce ammonium polysulfide and alkali metal sulfide, heat the mixture of sulfur and wax to produce hydrogen sulfide, and produce sulfuric acid, liquid sulfur dioxide, sodium sulfite, carbon disulfide, sulfoxide chloride, chrome oxide green, etc. in the laboratory.

7. Other industries
It is used to control forest diseases.
The dye industry is used to produce sulfide dyes.
It is also used to produce pesticides and firecrackers.
The paper industry is used for cooking pulp.
Sulfur yellow powder is used as vulcanizing agent for rubber and also for preparing match powder.
It is used for high-end decoration and protection of household appliances, steel furniture, building hardware and metal products.
