General description

Sodium perchlorate is a water soluble perchlorate salt. It is prepared by electrolyzing aqueous sodium chlorate solution. It is a strong oxidizing agent.[1] On impregnating porous silicon with sodium perchlorate it forms an explosive composite which has been investigated.[2]

Application


  • Silica-Poly(Vinyl Alcohol) Composite Aerogel: A Promising Electrolyte for Solid-State Sodium Batteries.: This research highlights the use of sodium perchlorate in developing silica-poly(vinyl alcohol) composite aerogels, serving as an innovative electrolyte for solid-state sodium batteries. This study showcases the potential for advancements in energy storage technologies, emphasizing the role of sodium perchlorate in enhancing battery performance and safety (Vareda JP et al., 2024).


  • A sodium ion conducting gel polymer electrolyte with counterbalance between 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate and tetra ethylene glycol dimethyl ether for electrochemical applications.: This research demonstrates the use of sodium perchlorate in developing a gel polymer electrolyte for sodium-ion batteries, providing a balance between conductivity and stability, crucial for the next generation of energy storage systems (Patel M et al., 2024).



  • Bendable quasi-solid-state aqueous sodium-ion batteries operated at -30 °C.: Utilizing sodium perchlorate, this study develops flexible and low-temperature operable sodium-ion batteries, offering significant advancements in portable and wearable electronic devices, highlighting the adaptability and efficiency of sodium perchlorate in extreme conditions (Gui Q et al., 2024).

Questions

1–3 of 3 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
