Sodium hypophosphite, also known as sodium hypophosphite monohydrate, Abbr. SHPP or HYPO.

Applications of Sodium Hypophosphite:

1. Electroless Nickel Plating: The metal surface plated through electroless plating possesses corrosion and wear resistance, a uniform, dense, and firm nickel-phosphorus coating, which can replace stainless steel materials. It is widely used in electronics, machinery, petroleum, OEM manufacturing, aviation, nautical, food, pharmaceutical, and other industries.

2. Metallization of Non-Metal Surfaces: It metallizes the surfaces of non-metal materials such as plastics, ceramics, glass, and quartz.

3. Water Treatment: It is used in the preparation of various industrial preservatives and oilfield scale inhibitors.

4. Food and Industrial Boiler Water Additives: It serves as an additive in food and industrial boiler water.

5. Catalyst and Stabilizer in Chemical Reactions: It is used in concrete water-reducing agents and other applications.

6. Other Applications: It can be used as an antioxidant, an anti-fade agent, a dispersant, and in textile finishing and the pharmaceutical industry.
