Industrial Grade Soda Ash

Product introduction

Industrial Soda ash, also known as washing soda, is sodium hydroxide (NaOH), which is widely used in industry, agriculture, and pharmaceuticals. In industry, it is used to produce fertilizers, purify petroleum and natural gas, manufacture pulp and paper, produce glass, and make detergents. In agriculture, it is used for soil conditioning, fence preservation, and neutralizing acidic pesticides. In medicine, it is used to make antacids and treat skin diseases.

When using it, one should be aware of its strong alkalinity, avoid direct contact with skin and eyes, and take appropriate protective measures.

Industrial Soda ash plays an important role in many fields, but safe use is crucial.

The chemical formula of soda ash is Na₂CO₃, commonly known as soda, block soda, and mouth soda. Sodium carbonate is soluble in water and glycerol, slightly soluble in anhydrous ethanol, and insoluble in propanol.

Pure alkali is one of the important chemical raw materials and its uses are very extensive. The uses of pure alkali mainly include the following fields:

In the field of building materials, soda ash is one of the main raw for flat glass, which provides sodium ions for the reaction and is also the main component of clarifiers. In the field of chemical production, soda ash is widely used in production of sodium silicate (commonly known as water glass), sodium bicarbonate (commonly known as baking soda), sodium fluoride, and chromic.

In the field of printing and dyeing metallurgy, soda ash acts as a softener in the production process of textiles, or it can be used as a solvent inelting, a flotation agent in ore dressing, and a desulfurizer in steelmaking, etc. In the field of food processing, soda ash, as flour additive, plays the role of a neutralizer, leavening agent, buffer, and dough conditioner, increasing the taste and flexibility of pasta, and can also be used as main auxiliary additive in the production of monosodium glutamate and soy sauce.
