What is the CAS number of common salt (sodium chloride)?
The CAS number of sodium chloride is 7647-14-5. Its chemical formula is NaCl, and it is classified under HSN code 2501 00 10.
What is PDV salt? What is the full form of PDV?
PDV stands for Pure Dried Vacuum salt — the vacuum-evaporated grade of sodium chloride. We stock Industrial Vacuum (PDV) Salt manufactured by Gujarat Alkalies and Chemicals Limited (GACL), specified at 99.5% min NaCl on a dry basis, versus looser limits typical of ordinary common salt.
What is the specification of industrial grade sodium chloride?
Our TDS (SPC-TDS-PWD-029) follows the manufacturer's published specification with IS 797 reference: NaCl 99.5% min on a dry basis, moisture 0.5% max, matter insoluble in water 0.05% max, calcium 0.05% max, magnesium 0.02% max, and sulphate 0.20% max. Appearance is free-flowing white crystals.
What is the HSN code for common salt (sodium chloride)?
The HSN code for sodium chloride is 2501 00 10. Use this code for GST classification of common salt in India.
Is sodium chloride hazardous?
No. Sodium chloride is non-hazardous and non-flammable, carries no UN number, and is not classified as dangerous goods. As a dust it can irritate eyes and airways, so avoid dust generation; store dry in sealed bags, as it turns hygroscopic on prolonged moisture exposure.
