Liquid Sodium Hypophosphite

Palms SHP is blended exclusively from high purity SHP for

use in electroless nickel solutions. The EN process allows
for uniform plating thickness on not only metal objects, but
also plastics and ceramics. It is the purest material available
commercially and is made to demanding specifications, and is
subjected to stringent quality control testing. SHP may be used
as a reducing agent or antioxidant in chemical processing, as
a catalyst in some polymerization reactions, as a stabilizer to
prevent degradation of polymers during extrusion or in other
heated processing and may be used as a partial fire retardant.
