Sodium Permanganate is a strong oxidizer with the chemical formula NaMnO₄, Purple liquid, density 1.36-1.39g/cm³, soluble to water/ethyl alcohol/diethyl ether, strong oxidant, similar to KMnO₄.

It can be used as oxidant, disinfectant, bactericide, purifying agent etc. Such as PCB surface cleaning, API, jean-washing, drinking water purification, electroplating degreasing, EMD, metal cleaning etc. It also widely used in chemical industry, metallurgy, environmental protection, textiles, water treatment industry etc.

Sodium Permanganate is highly oxidized, and it's reduction products vary according to the acid and alkali of the medium:

it is reduced to Mn2+ in acidic solution;

it is reduced to MnO2 in slightly acidic, neutral and alkaline solution;

it is reduced to Na2MnO4 in strong alkaline solution, and compound MnO2 is further generated with Mn2+, as a characteristic reaction of manganese compounds.

Sodium Permanganate and concentrated sulfuric acid contact is easy to explosion, and organic matter contact, friction, collision will cause combustion, and heat will release oxygen. Used as oxidant, fungicide, antidote, can also be a substitute for Potassium Permanganate.
