Caustic Soda Flakes Powder Flakes Caustic Potash Industrial Technical Grade Package 50 Kg

Product Description

Caustic soda is a naturally occurring substance derived from potassium carbonate. In its pure form it can be dangerous if ingested, but when mixed with water or alcohol it becomes caustic soda. It is used in many household products including dishwashing detergents, laundry detergent, floor cleaners, and bathroom cleansers. It is also used as a cleaning agent for metals, wood, and leather. Its main use is as a component in alkaline batteries. Sodium hydroxide is another name for it, but sometimes people call it lye. Lye is used in soap making because it reacts with fats and oils to make soap. The process is called saponification. Other names for sodium hydroxide are caustic soda and potash.
