Field Of Applications

Caustic Soda is used in:

  • Pulp and paper (in digestion process for the extraction of Chlorlignin of wood and pulp.)
  • Aluminum (for the extraction of Alumina from Bauxite.)
  • Soap (in saponification reaction.)
  • Detergent (in the process of neutralizing LAB.)
  • Petroleum Refining (for naturalizing H2S in light distillates.)
  • Rayon (in viscous section for the extraction of cellulose from the pulp.)
  • Power Plants (in anionic resin regeneration in D.M. Plant.)
  • Pharmaceuticals (in Paracetamol, Analgin, Ranitidine, Ibuprofen, Ciprofloxacin etc.)


Powerful and Versatile Industrial Alkali

Caustic Soda Flakes are indispensible in a multitude of industries due to their strong alkaline nature and high purity. They play a critical role in saponification for soaps, cellulose extraction in paper production, pH adjustment in water treatment, and as a key ingredient in detergents and dyes. Their ability to react vigorously with water and acids makes them valuable yet demands responsible and skilled usage.


Safe Handling and Storage Essentials

Given their corrosive and hygroscopic properties, Caustic Soda Flakes must be handled using protective gloves, clothing, and proper eye/face shields. To maintain product stability and user safety, these flakes should be stored in tightly closed containers, away from moisture and incompatible materials like acids, in cool, dry environments. With correct handling, product quality can be ensured for up to two years.

FAQs of Caustic Soda Flakes:


Q: How should Caustic Soda Flakes be safely handled during use?

A: Caustic Soda Flakes must be handled with care using appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves, protective clothing, and eye/face protection. Avoid any direct contact with skin, eyes, or inhalation of dust. Always use in well-ventilated areas and ensure access to emergency water supply for accidental splashes.

Q: What are the main industrial applications of Caustic Soda Flakes?

A: Caustic Soda Flakes are widely used in manufacturing soap, detergent, pulp and paper, textiles, dyes, pharmaceuticals, petroleum refining, and in water treatment plants for pH control, among other applications where strong alkali is required.

Q: When is Caustic Soda Flakes most effectively used in industrial processes?

A: Caustic Soda Flakes are most effective when high pH or strong alkalinity is required, such as during saponification in soap making, cellulose extraction for paper, effluent treatment, and neutralizing acidic waste streams. They should be added carefully and gradually to aqueous solutions due to their exothermic reaction with water.

Q: Where should Caustic Soda Flakes be stored to maintain their quality?

A: Store Caustic Soda Flakes in tightly sealed HDPE or PP bags with double liners, placed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from acids, organic substances, and moisture. Proper storage preserves product integrity and ensures up to two years of shelf life.

Q: What precautions should be taken during the preparation or mixing process?

A: Always add Caustic Soda Flakes slowly to water to prevent splattering, as the reaction releases intense heat. Use chemical-resistant containers and stir gently. Never add water to flakes, always add flakes to water to control the exothermic reaction.

Q: How does the use of Caustic Soda Flakes benefit industrial operations?

A: Their high purity and strong alkalinity enable efficient chemical processing, help achieve precise pH control, enhance product quality in soaps and textiles, and support effective water treatment. Proper use optimizes efficiency and cost-effectiveness in complex industrial operations.
