Description
Sodium hydroxide is a white translucent crystalline solid. Its aqueous solution has astringent and slippery feel. Sodium hydroxide is easily deliquescent in the air, so solid sodium hydroxide is often used as a desiccant. It is very soluble in water, releasing a lot of heat when dissolved. Soluble in ethanol and glycerin.
Application
Sodium hydroxide is used in the production of paper and cellulose pulp; used in the production of soaps, synthetic detergents, synthetic fatty acids and the refining of animal and vegetable oils; used as a cotton desizing agent, a scouring agent and a mercerizing agent.in the textile printing and dyeing industry; used to produce borax, sodium cyanide, formic acid, oxalic acid, phenol, and the like in the chemical industry; used to refine petroleum products in the petroleum industry; also used in the surface treatment of alumina, metal zinc and metallic copper as well as in glass, enamel, tanning, pharmaceuticals, dyes and pesticides. Food grade sodium hydroxide are used as acid neutralizers in the food industry, and can be used as peeling agents for citrus, peaches, etc., as well as decolorizing agents and deodorants.
