Product Description
Caustic soda flakes, also known as solid sodium hydroxide, are white, translucent flakes that dissolve readily in water with the release of significant heat. This product is highly corrosive and must be kept away from direct contact with skin and eyes.
Industrially, caustic soda flakes serve as a vital chemical feedstock, extensively used in papermaking, synthetic detergent production, textile printing and dyeing, and water treatment. Additionally, food-grade products compliant with national standards exist, functioning as acidity regulators and processing aids within the food industry.
Package
