Ammonium thioglycolate Application scenarios
1. Hair Styling and Perming:
In cosmetics, it is a core ingredient in curling agents (cold perm solutions), achieving curling or straightening by reducing disulfide bonds in hair keratin. A 1%-10% aqueous solution is commonly used.
2. Metal Ion Determination and Masking in Analytical Chemistry:
As a photometric reagent and masking agent, it is used for colorimetric determination of ions such as iron, aluminum, silver, tin, and molybdenum.
3. Pharmaceutical Industry:
Used as a reagent for determining iron and may serve as an intermediate or excipient in the synthesis of certain drugs.
4. Synthesis of Functional Adsorbent Materials:
Its solution can be used to synthesize adsorbent materials such as thiol-functionalized eggshell membranes for removing heavy metal ions from water, such as Cr(VI), Hg(II), Cu(II), Pb(II), Cd(II), and Ag(I).
5. Polymer Material Modification:
It can be used as a reagent in the synthesis of composite materials such as cellulose-Rhodamine B methacrylamide (cellulose-RhBMA).
6. Industrial Cleaning and Rust Removal:
Utilizing its reducing properties, it can be used as a cleaning agent and rust remover to remove oxides from metal surfaces.
7. Oil and Gas Field Completion Fluid Corrosion Inhibitor:
In oil exploration, it can be used as a corrosion inhibitor for high-density bromide completion fluids to inhibit the corrosion of pipes by drilling fluids.
8. PVC Stabilizer:
In the plastics industry, it can be used as a heat stabilizer for PVC to improve the thermal stability of the material.
9. Biochemical Research Tool:
As a disulfide bond reducing agent, it is used to treat proteins or peptides to study their structures.
