Soda Ash Light
Soda Ash Light is a high-grade chemical compound consisting of sodium carbonate. Its light, powdery texture makes it ideal for a variety of industrial purposes, and it can easily be stored or transported without risk of degradation. With its consistent quality, it is the go-to choice for commercial and industrial applications.
CHEMICAL INDUSTRY
In this industry, Soda Ash Light is used for various chemical reactions to produce inorganic or organic compounds. These compounds can then be further utilized in a variety of different applications, for example Soda Ash is used to produce sodium silicates which can then be employed to produce chemicals such as silicas.
Soda Ash is also used in pulp and paper manufacture, and as a pH regulator in certain chemical reactions.
DETERGENT INDUSTRY
Soda Ash Light is used in powdered, paste and soap detergents where it acts as a "builder" and can be used either alone or in conjunction with Sodium TripolyPohsphate (STPP) or zeolites. Soda Ash also acts as a water softener and demonstrates a cleaning function.
Builders in detergents perform the following functions:
Removal of magnesium and calcium ions that are prevalent in "hard water"
Provide alkalinity to water
Assists in dispersing any soil present in washing solution and prevent soil re-deposition on laundry.
