Caustic Soda Flake: Complete Information

Introduction to Caustic Soda Flake
Caustic soda flakes, also known as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), are white, crystalline solids. It is an essential industrial chemical used for various applications like chemical manufacturing, water treatment, and pulp & paper industries. This page will provide you with detailed information about caustic soda flakes, their uses, benefits, and precautions when handling them.

What is Caustic Soda Flake?
Caustic soda flakes are a highly alkaline compound that readily absorbs moisture from the environment. It is a common form of sodium hydroxide and is produced through the process of electrolysis of sodium chloride solution (brine). The flakes are widely used in many industries due to their effectiveness in breaking down organic materials.

Chemical Properties
– Chemical Formula: NaOH
– Molecular Weight: 40.00 g/mol
– Appearance: White flakes, odorless
– Solubility: Highly soluble in water, forming a strong exothermic reaction
– pH: Strongly alkaline (pH 14)

Applications of Caustic Soda Flake

Due to caustic soda factors, it has used in many different industries. In the food industry: milk industry, canning, olive sweetening, water treatment, chocolate production, cocoa and caramel production, vegetable and fruit washing, soft drinks, oil refining, sugar, and sugar production.

In the metal and electroplating industries: metal, zinc, aluminum, galvanizing and electroplating, glass. Battery industry and neutralize the acid and battery, The Pharmaceutical industry.

Alcohol and cosmetics, Industry consuming fatty, leather and textile, industry and Dyeing industry, Oil, gas and petrochemical industry, Cardboard and paper industry, Leaf profit (caustic soda) pack, Drilling Mud, Detergent and Soap Making, Biodiesel, Aluminum etching, Domestic uses, Tissue digestion, Delignification of cellulosic materials and, Pulp and paper.

1. Chemical Industry
   Caustic soda flakes are used as a strong base in the production of various chemicals like soaps, detergents, and synthetic fibers.
2. Water Treatment
   It is employed in water treatment plants to maintain proper pH levels in the water. It helps neutralize acidic water and remove heavy metals.
3. Pulp and Paper Industry
   In the pulping process, caustic soda flakes help dissolve wood chips to extract cellulose fibers, which are later processed into paper.
4. Food Industry
   In regulated quantities, caustic soda flakes are used in the food industry to peel fruits and vegetables, process chocolate, and thicken ice cream.
5. Textile Industry
   Caustic soda flakes are widely used in the textile industry for fabric dyeing and processing. They help in the scouring process, removing impurities from cotton fabric.

Benefits of Using Caustic Soda Flakes

• Highly Efficient: Provides a strong alkaline solution, making it effective in breaking down organic compounds.
• Cost-Effective: A widely available chemical, caustic soda flakes are affordable for industrial use.
• Versatility: Applicable across multiple industries including textiles, paper, and food processing.
• Environmental Application: Used in wastewater treatment, helping to clean and maintain environmental standards.

Properties of Flake Caustic Soda

• White solid
• Highly caustic
• Strong base
• Soluble in water, ethanol and methanol
• Readily absorbs water (hygroscopic) and carbon di oxide from the air
• Strong electrolyte
• Not volatile, can rise easily in air as an aerosol
• Dissolution of solid caustic soda in water in highly exothermic

Safety Measures and Precautions

When handling caustic soda flakes, it’s crucial to follow safety protocols:

1. Protective Gear
   Always wear gloves, goggles, and protective clothing to avoid direct contact with the skin or eyes. Sodium hydroxide is corrosive and can cause severe burns.
2. Proper Storage
   Store caustic soda flakes in an airtight container and in a dry, cool place. Since it is hygroscopic, it can absorb moisture from the air, leading to clumping and reduced effectiveness.
3. Handling Spills
   In case of a spill, use absorbent materials to clean the area. Avoid contact with water as caustic soda reacts exothermically with water.
4. First Aid
   If it comes into contact with the skin or eyes, wash the area with plenty of water and seek immediate medical attention.

Packing of Caustic Soda Flake 

There are different kind of packing for industrial caustic soda , since caustic soda /sodium hydroxide is chemical product better to pack in pp bag which is laminated and don’t allow any water to moisture enter the bag , also for transportation and reducing labor charges we can put bags in 1250 Kg jumbo bag or pallets are possible.

Food grade caustic and sodium hydroxide ship in safe metal container which keep away soda from moisture and humid condition , Hydroxide is hydrophilic which means that it not only attracts moisture and water but it actively absorbs any moisture or water to which it is exposed.

25 kgs 2 layer laminate PP ( 1250 Kg Big Bag or Pallet with cover is optional ).

Export Experiences

RAHA Group exported its caustic soda flake form to several countries such as Ghana, Serbia, Sudan, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Vietnam, Turkey, Iraq, Uzbekistan and some other destinations. We can issue Certificate of Origin and SGS for esteemed customers to keep them sure about quality and quantity of the product.
