Abstract

A process for removing sulfur from an organic polysulfide by reaction with an aqueous stripping solution of at least one sulfide salt and/or hydrosulfide salt in a multi-stage, continuous, countercurrent flow, reaction system wherein the sulfur is stripped from the polysulfide into the aqueous stripping solution phase which is separated from the polysulfide organic phase.
