naoh solid
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), commonly known as lye or caustic soda, is a highly caustic metallic base and alkali salt. In its solid form, it appears as white pellets or flakes, readily absorbing moisture from the environment and dissolving in water with the release of substantial heat. This exothermic dissolution process makes it valuable in various chemical manufacturing processes, including paper production, soap making, and the synthesis of various chemicals. Being a strong base, NaOH is also widely used in pH adjustment, wastewater treatment, and as a cleaning agent. Handling NaOH requires caution due to its ability to cause severe chemical burns and its reactivity towards organic materials.
