Sodium m-Nitrobenzenesulfonate Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- Sodium 3-Nitrobenzenesulfonate
- Sodium Meta-Nitrobenzene Sulphonate
- Resist Salt
Sodium m-nitrobenzenesulfonate is a speciality textile auxiliary also known as sodium 3-nitrobenzenesulfonate and resist salt. PNS appears in some industry searches but is shared with another chemical, so buyers should use the full meta-isomer name to avoid ambiguity.
Commercial forms include technical powder, crystals or granules and aqueous solution grades at a stated concentration. Solid assay, solution concentration, insolubles and colour are useful selection points, while packing and the applicable document set are confirmed with the quotation.
The product is used as a mild oxidising auxiliary in reactive dyeing and printing, vat and sulphur dyeing, discharge printing and textile auxiliary formulation. It may also be specified as an intermediate in selected dye and organic synthesis routes.
This page is limited to the sodium salt of the meta, or 3-, isomer and does not combine the ortho or para isomers or other dyeing auxiliaries under the same identity. Send the required form, assay or concentration, quantity and delivery location for a grade-specific quotation.

Sodium M-Nitrobenzenesulfonate applications
Common questions about sodium m-nitrobenzenesulfonate
What is sodium m-nitrobenzenesulfonate used for?
It is used mainly as a textile dyeing and printing auxiliary, including reactive, vat and sulphur dye processes, and in some dye and organic synthesis routes.
Is resist salt the same as sodium m-nitrobenzenesulfonate?
Resist salt is a common textile trade term for sodium m-nitrobenzenesulfonate. The required chemical identity and grade should still be stated on the enquiry.
Does this page cover every nitrobenzenesulfonate isomer?
No. This page covers the sodium salt of the meta, or 3-, isomer and does not merge the ortho or para isomers with it.
Can buyers enquire for both solid and liquid grades?
Yes. State whether powder, crystals, granules or a solution is required, together with the target assay or concentration.
What information is needed for a quotation?
Provide the form, specification, quantity, delivery location and required documents. Availability, packing and the document set are confirmed with the quotation.
