Soda ash dense or sodium carbonate is an inorganic chemical compound that has many uses in industries. It is used for its alkaline nature and its ability to soften things.
Crucial in the manufacturing of glass in that they help in reducing the melting point of silica during the shaping and forming process.
Assists in purging out the impurities hence producing better quality glass with better light transmission and toughness.
It is used as an active component in most home washing powders to help in the washing process by removing dirt and grease.
Used in water treatment plants to remove acidity from water and stabilise the pH.
Helps in the coagulation of magnesium and calcium ions, thus making hard water soft.
Used in the preparation of different chemicals such as sodium bicarbonate and sodium silicate.
Used in chemical reactions as a source of alkali and is used in the production of various industrial chemicals.
It is sometimes incorporated in food as a leavening and stabilising agent.
It is involved in the processing of some food products to standardise and improve their quality.
Soda ash densely can be packaged in bags, sacks as well as bulk shipments depending on the requirements of the industries.
