The salts of thio-acids:
Our thio-salts
Thio-salts (also called mercapto salts) are the salts of oxo-acids where one or more oxygen atoms are replaced by sulphur. In addition to the carboxyl group they also contain an SH group (thio group).
Used in cosmetics
Our thio-salts are, for example, used in hair cosmetics and, above all, in hair-perming products. Another large area of application is depilation.

Calciumthioglycolate-trihydrate
Calcium thioglycolate trihydrate in high-purity quality is used in the cosmetics industry as the main active ingredient in creams, gels or mousses for mild depilation as well as for perms and hair straightening.
The calcium salt of mercaptoacetic acid as a raw material for pharmaceuticals inhibits the activity of the necrosis factor, which is involved in inflammation.
Calcium thioglycolate trihydrate is used as a metal ion monitoring reagent for chemical analyses and acts as a tanning agent for leather.

Potassiumthioglycolate 43%
Potassium thioglycolate is the potassium salt of thioglycolic acid.
It is an organic chemical compound that is used in high-purity quality in the cosmetics industry as the main active ingredient in depilatories.
Due to its reducing properties, it can form metal complexes with iron and can therefore be used in formulations for metal cleaners.
The reducing properties of potassium thioglycolate are suitable for use in anaerobic cultures.

Sodiumthioglycolate 23,5-25%
Sodium thioglycolate as an aqueous solution is used in leather and cleaning Industries.
In leather Industry, NaTG29 is used as an active ingredient to remove hair from hides and thus prepare the surface of the leather for tanning or dyeing.
In the cleaning Industry, NaTG45 or NaTG45+ as well is used to dissolve stubborn dirt and effectively clean surfaces or special materials. The start of the reaction indicates the cleaning effect, for example in wheel cleaners, by means of a violet color. So NaTG also serves as an indicator of effectiveness.
