Sodium ferrocyanide, also known chemically as sodium hexacyanoferrate(II) with the formula Na4\[Fe(CN)6], is a yellow crystalline compound that is highly soluble in water and stable under normal conditions. It is a coordination compound consisting of a ferrous (Fe2+) ion complexed with six cyanide ligands, forming a stable octahedral structure, with four sodium ions balancing the charge. Despite containing cyanide, sodium ferrocyanide is considered relatively non-toxic due to the strong binding between iron and cyanide ions, which prevents the release of free cyanide under neutral or mildly alkaline conditions. It is widely used across various industries; in the food industry, it serves as an anti-caking agent in salt and is designated as food additive E535. In chemical manufacturing, it acts as an intermediate in the production of pigments such as Prussian blue. In the photographic and printing industries, it has applications in blueprinting and as a component in certain photographic processes. Additionally, sodium ferrocyanide is utilized in metal treatment processes and electroplating, as well as in laboratory analysis for detecting metal ions like copper and iron due to its ability to form colored complexes. Its combination of chemical stability and coordination behavior makes it valuable in both industrial and analytical contexts.
The sodium ferrocyanide market is driven by a combination of industrial demand, regulatory trends, and technological advancement across various sectors. As a widely used anticaking agent in food-grade salt and de-icing products, sodium ferrocyanide plays a key role in maintaining product stability and flowability, especially in food processing and cold-climate infrastructure maintenance. Its applications extend into metal treatment and the automotive industry, where it functions as a corrosion inhibitor in metalworking fluids-an increasingly critical use as global vehicle production, particularly electric vehicles, continues to grow. In chemical manufacturing, sodium ferrocyanide serves as a stabilizing and reducing agent in the synthesis of pigments like Prussian blue, dyes, and specialty chemicals, with demand supported by the expansion of textile, printing, and packaging industries.
The key manufacturers of Sodium Ferrocyanide include Sichuan Lifeng Chemical, Hebei Chengxin, China Unis Chemical (Purple Chemical), Jincheng City Hongsheng Chemical, UPL, Hindusthan Chemicals Company, GACL, Imperial Chemical Corporation, etc. The top three players account for about 95% of the global market in total. China is the world's largest market, with a market share of about 26% in terms of sales revenue. It is followed by North America, with about 23%. In terms of product, it is divided into food grade and industrial grade, among which industrial grade accounts for more than 98% of the global market. In terms of application, it is mainly used in pigment, pharmaceutical, smelting, chemical, battery material and other aspects. The pigment industry has a market share of about 60%. Battery material is expected to replace pigment and become the main downstream industry in the future.
