Sodium nitrite types

[Wish2Exit]

Does anyone know what if any difference there is between sodium nitrite "metals basis" and SN "analytical reagent?" They are both 99% pure. Thanks.

Makes no difference for what you're concerned. Only thing that matters is that assay is >95%.

This junk only really matters if you're a chemist or whatever, so don't worry too much about it. Both of those should be pretty pure. FWIW metals basis may have more nonmetal impurities specifically but again, that's not gonna matter.

There's one that might be called "food grade" but the purity is the important thing, but the food grade is going to cost more. Look for 99%.

Thanks for letting me know. It puts my mind at ease!
