Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH), commonly known as caustic soda, is a highly corrosive, strong alkali widely used in industrial, chemical, and manufacturing processes. It is known for its strong alkalinity, high reactivity, and effectiveness in neutralization and chemical synthesis.

• Chemical Formula: NaOH

• Molecular Weight: 40.00 g/mol

• Appearance: White, odorless solid (flakes, pellets, or granules) or colorless liquid (solution form)

• Odor: Odorless

• Solubility: Highly soluble in water (exothermic reaction)

• pH: Strongly alkaline

• Flammability: Non-flammable

• Reactivity: Reacts violently with acids; absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide from air

• Chemical Manufacturing: Used in the production of soaps, detergents, dyes, and inorganic chemicals

• pH Regulation: Used for neutralization and pH control in various chemical processes

• Pulp Processing: Essential for pulping and bleaching processes in paper manufacturing

• Mercerization: Used to improve strength, luster, and dye affinity of cotton fabrics

• pH Adjustment: Used in municipal and industrial water treatment plants

• Effluent Treatment: Neutralizes acidic wastewater

• Food Processing: Used for cleaning, peeling, and processing food products (food-grade NaOH)
