Sulphur (Powder)
Sulphur (Powder) (Product Code: SCI-556/165) is an analytical reagent grade elemental sulphur powder used to demonstrate the properties of a non-metal and the difference between a mixture and a compound in school and college chemistry laboratories. Chemistry teachers and lab assistants order it in a 100 g pack that arrives with its MSDS. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, a chemistry consumables supplier in India for schools and colleges.

What Is Sulphur Powder Used For?
The classic use is the iron and sulphur practical. Students stir sulphur powder with iron powder and show that a magnet still lifts the iron out, so the two elements are only mixed. After the mixture is heated in a hard-glass tube it glows, and the grey-black iron(II) sulphide left behind is no longer attracted by the magnet, which is the evidence that a compound has formed.
In a school chemistry lab the same powder also illustrates typical non-metal behaviour: it is yellow and brittle, does not dissolve in water and does not conduct electricity. A tiny amount burnt in a gas jar produces sulphur dioxide, whose solution turns blue litmus red, and molten sulphur poured into cold water gives plastic sulphur for lessons on allotropes. Carry out all heating in a fume cupboard or a well-ventilated room, because sulphur dioxide is choking.
Supplier
ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, based in Ambala, Haryana. The company sources Sulphur (Powder) as an analytical reagent and dispatches each 100 g pack with its MSDS, so the school store can file the safety sheet next to the chemical.
Iron powder, magnets, test tube holders and litmus paper are listed by the same supplier, which lets a teacher request the whole non-metals practical on one enquiry for delivery in India and international markets. Background on the company is on the ScienceLab profile.

Frequently Asked Questions
What grade is Sulphur (Powder) SCI-556/165?
Sulphur (Powder) SCI-556/165 is analytical reagent grade elemental sulphur. The powder form mixes evenly with iron powder and melts readily, which suits school demonstrations and qualitative practicals, and each pack is sent with its MSDS.
How much sulphur is in one pack?
One pack of Sulphur (Powder) SCI-556/165 contains 100 g of powder. If several sections or laboratories run the iron and sulphur practical, state how many packs you need in your enquiry so the quotation covers every lab.
Is Sulphur (Powder) safe to heat in class?
Sulphur (Powder) can be heated in class with care: it melts, can catch fire, and burning sulphur gives off choking sulphur dioxide. Heat only small amounts in a fume cupboard or well-ventilated room, wear goggles and follow the MSDS supplied with the pack.
How should Sulphur (Powder) be stored?
Keep Sulphur (Powder) SCI-556/165 in its closed container in a cool, dry place, away from flames and oxidising agents. Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.
Is a batch analysis document available for Sulphur (Powder)?
Sulphur (Powder) SCI-556/165 is supplied with its MSDS. If your institution needs another batch document, such as an analysis sheet, mention it on the contact page and we will tell you what is available for the batch quoted.
