| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Production Methods]
Sodium tetrathiocarbonate is produced commercially by reacting alkali sulphides and polysulphides with carbon disulphide under controlled alkaline conditions, generating the tetrathiocarbonate anion in solution and stabilising it as the sodium salt. Because the compound is moisture-sensitive and prone to decomposition, manufacturers typically handle it as an aqueous concentrate, adjusting sulphide ratios, temperature, and pH to favour the tetrathiocarbonate species over competing sulphur-carbon products. | [Mechanism of action]
