Disclaimer and references
Sodium acetate, also known as sodium ethanoate, is used in a number of industries: The last usage is seen in consumer heating pads. The contents (sodium acetate and water) are solid at normal temperature, but are heated in boiling water to melt the contents; after cooling, the clicking of a disk within the pad triggers the supercooled liquid to freeze and crystallise. The release of energy returns the pad to its freezing point of 54°C until it has fully solidified. The process is theoretically repeatable indefinitely, although the containing pouch will eventually break in practice.
