Product Description :
Caustic soda flakes is obtained from sodium hydroxide – technical grade, by electrolytic process. It is a solid white, hygroscopic, odorless substance. Caustic soda flakes easily dissolves in water with heat release. Sodium hydroxide is a strong electrolyte (completely ionized both in crystalline and solution states). Sodium hydroxide is not volatile, but it rises easily in air as aerosols
