Alkali Metal Salts

Potash is used in black/brown patina (copper, brass, bronze). Its use include decorative color effects on copper, brass, bronze and nickel. Sulfurated potash has been used in the treatment of acne and other skin disorders usually in the form of a lotion with zinc sulfate.

Sodium Bicarbonate (Fine White Powder)

Sodium hydrogen carbonate is used as a laboratory chemical, a leavening agent, a neutralizer, as an active component in fire extinguishers, as a source of carbon dioxide and pH balancer in pools, as a cattle feed supplement and in spas and garden ponds.

Sodium sulfite is used in the photography industry to protect developing solutions from oxidation, in the pulp and paper industry, in water treatment as an oxygen scavenger agent, as a desulfurizing and dechlorinating agent in the leather industry and as a bleaching agent in textile industry.

Sodium Phosphate Dibasic Anhydrous (White Granules or Powder)

Cesium iodide is used as an input phosphor in x-ray image intensifier tube of fluoroscopy equipment. It is also used as an equipment for electromagnetic calorimetry in experimental particle physics. It is often employed as a beamsplitter in Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectrometers.
