Description:
Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), commonly known as caustic soda, is a highly versatile and strong alkaline compound. It appears as white, odorless, hygroscopic pellets that readily absorb moisture and carbon dioxide from the air. It is highly soluble in water, releasing heat upon dissolution, and forms a strongly alkaline solution.
Applications:
- Used in chemical manufacturing, including the production of soaps, detergents, and textiles
- Essential in pH regulation, neutralization of acids, and chemical processing
- Applied in water treatment, petroleum refining, and food processing industries
- Utilized in laboratory settings for titrations and analytical chemistry
- Employed in the pharmaceutical industry for drug synthesis and formulation
