Sodium Thiocyanate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- NaSCN
- Sodium Rhodanide
- Sodium Rhodanate
- Sodium Sulphocyanate
Sodium thiocyanate supplier enquiries in Malaysia commonly cover acrylic fibre spinning, textile dyeing, electroplating make-up, chemical intermediate work and laboratory reagent use. Also known as NaSCN, sodium rhodanide, sodium rhodanate and sodium sulphocyanate, this inorganic salt is a distinct product from sodium cyanide and other thiocyanate salts.
Commercial buyers choose between white crystals, free-flowing powder and aqueous solution, and between technical and reagent grades. Crystals and powder suit solid charging and solution make-up, while liquor grades suit dosed process use when a stated strength is required. Assay, form and grade documentation should be stated with the enquiry.
Textile and acrylic fibre processors use technical NaSCN in spinning baths and related wet processing, while metal-finishing and manufacturing buyers specify it for plating make-up and synthesis intermediate duty. Laboratory buyers select reagent grades for analytical preparation. Keep the identity clear as sodium thiocyanate so the enquiry is not mixed with cyanide or potassium thiocyanate requirements.
Send the required form, grade, specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation, together with a stated price validity period.

Sodium Thiocyanate grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sodium thiocyanate white crystals | white crystals or crystalline granules | — | General industrial charging where solid NaSCN crystals are preferred for solution make-up, acrylic fibre spinning baths and process intermediate work. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Sodium thiocyanate powder | white free-flowing powder or crystalline powder | — | Dry handling and faster dissolution where a powder form is specified for dyeing, plating make-up or chemical synthesis feeds. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Sodium thiocyanate aqueous solution | clear aqueous solution | — | Dosed or pumped process use where a ready solution is preferred over solid make-up. Strength is confirmed against the buyer's specification. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Technical grade sodium thiocyanate | crystals, powder or solution according to the quoted grade | — | Acrylic fibre and polymer processing, textile dyeing and printing, electroplating make-up and general industrial intermediate duty. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Reagent grade sodium thiocyanate | crystals or powder according to the quoted grade | — | Laboratory reagent work and analytical preparation where a higher purity or tighter impurity profile is required. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Sodium Thiocyanate applications
Safety and handling
Keep sealed in a cool, dry place. The solid is hygroscopic; protect crystals and powder from moisture. Control dust during powder handling and follow the safety information supplied with the quoted grade. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.
Common questions about sodium thiocyanate
Is sodium thiocyanate the same as sodium cyanide?
No. Sodium thiocyanate is NaSCN (CAS 540-72-7), also called sodium rhodanide or sodium sulphocyanate. Sodium cyanide is a different chemical (NaCN) with different handling, specification and supply requirements. Always use the full name sodium thiocyanate or the formula NaSCN in the enquiry.
Which form should I request, crystals, powder or solution?
White crystals and powder are the usual solid commercial forms for make-up and process charging. An aqueous solution is chosen when dosed or pumped handling is preferred. State the form, any required strength for solution grades, and the application so the quoted option can be matched.
What is technical grade sodium thiocyanate used for?
Technical or industrial grades are commonly requested for acrylic fibre spinning and polymer processing, textile dyeing and printing, electroplating make-up and general chemical intermediate work. Reagent grade is selected when laboratory or analytical purity is the priority.
Are sodium rhodanide and sodium sulphocyanate the same product?
Yes. Sodium rhodanide, sodium rhodanate, sodium sulphocyanate and sodium sulfocyanate are commercial synonyms for sodium thiocyanate (NaSCN). State the required form, grade and assay so the quotation is written to the correct commercial identity.
What specifications should a sodium thiocyanate enquiry include?
State crystals, powder or solution, required assay or concentration, intended application, quantity and delivery location. For solution grades, note the target strength. For laboratory work, list any purity or documentation limits your quality system needs.
How is sodium thiocyanate priced and packed?
Price depends on form, grade, specification, quantity, packing and delivery requirement. List preferred pack format and any documents your quality system needs with the enquiry. Packing, documentation and commercial terms are confirmed with the quotation and a stated validity period.
