Sodium sulfate is widely used in the form of granular detergents that improve solubility and flow characteristics of the product. Demand for sodium sulfate is increasing across developing markets as detergent consumption globally is also growing. Additionally, the role of sodium sulfate as an essential raw material in household and industrial cleaning products is further augmented by factors such as increasing urbanization and hygiene consciousness in developing nations, which increases detergent sales.

Increasing Demand for Sodium Sulfate in Battery Recycling: Sodium sulfate is gaining momentum in the extraction of precious metals like lithium, aluminum, and copper because of the rapidly growing lithium-ion battery recycling industry. Companies are investing in eco-friendly battery recycling technologies that include the separation of materials using sodium sulfate. Sodium sulfate demand in the battery recycling industry is expected to rise as the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy storage technology continues to grow.

Asia-Pacific has dominated the sodium sulphate market in 2024, and it is projected to maintain this trend of rapid growth throughout the forecast period. This high consumption of Sodium Sulphate in China accounts for its primary usage in such vast industries such as soaps & detergents and textiles. The surge of hygiene-conscious citizens in the region coupled with the demand for commercial and household detergents and soaps has augmented this market. Sodium Sulphate also acts as a pH neutralizer in these products. This increases the effectiveness of the product while increasing the thickness of the aqueous portion in the finished goods. Sodium Sulphate also plays an important role in detergent powders and prevents lump formation and allows the product to flow freely.
