Ammonium thioglycolate in perm hair is mainly to break the amino acid disulfide bond in the hair, and then make the hair soft, produce a series of changes, and then use an oxidizer to restore the broken disulfide bond after styling, the same hair soft can be used for hair removal. The amount of ammonium thioglycolate added in cosmetics should be appropriate, the content of 1.3 test method is low, there is no perm effect, the content is too high, the crimp retention rate is not high.


What are the industrial uses of ammonium thioglycolate？


Metal surface treatment


Ammonium thioglycolate can form a protective film with good adhesion and corrosion resistance with the metal surface, which is usually used in copper sheet, copper alloy and other metal surface treatment.


Electroplating

Ammonium thioglycolate can be used as a neutralizing agent and a reducing agent for many kinds of electroplating solution, which is widely used in electroplating production and can improve the deposition speed of electroplating parts.

Power battery

Ammonium thioglycolate, as a highly efficient electrolyte additive, can increase the cycle life and capacity of the battery, and inhibit the spontaneous reaction inside the battery.


Medicine


Ammonium thioglycolate can be used to prepare a variety of drugs, such as rifampicin, valproic acid, atorvastatin calcium, etc. Rifampicin is a broad spectrum antibiotic and has important medical application value.



As an important organic chemical, ammonium thioglycolate has a wide range of applications in industry, mainly including metal surface treatment, electroplating, power batteries, medicine and other fields
