CAUSTIC SODA IN SOAP MAKING

  Sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) is a strong base with a wide range of applications.Caustic soda is available as flakes, powder, granules or pellets. Sodium hydroxide is used as a reagent in chemical reactions to produce other substances.It is highly soluble in water. Soap is made using mixing fatty acids with sodium hydroxide solution.Lye solutions are formed when sodium hydroxide flakes or beads are added to a liquid.The process of soap making is called saponification. The process of saponification involves the conversion of fat, oil, or lipid into soap and alcohol using an aqueous alkali (for example, sodium hydroxide). Having such a versatile product like caustic soda around the house is a great idea. Sachlo is a leading Saudi factory for chlorine and alkalies. Sachlo manufactures caustic soda Saudi Arabia. This makes Sachlo a prominent  caustic soda flakes manufacturer MENA .

DEICING USING CALCIUM CHLORIDE

  Deicing is a method of removing the accumulated ice and snow from the roads and pavements with the help of chemicals. Heavy snowfall during the winter season is a hurdle and threat to the commute and daily life. Deicing should be done quickly on busy routes to avoid accidents. Hence deicing is done using chemicals like calcium chloride, Magnesium chloride, Potassium chloride or Magnesium acetate. The advantage of using Calcium Chloride as ice melt over other mentioned chemicals is its better performance at a lower temperature. Its tendency to combine with and absorb moisture makes calcium chloride dissolve in water more rapidly than other substances. Calcium Chloride can melt ice and snow even at -25°F (-32°C). The efficiency of Calcium Chloride as an ice melt decreases the labour cost also. Calcium Chloride is available as flakes and pellets. Sachlo is a leading chemical manufacturing company in Saudi Arabia and MENA. Sachlo is  Calcium Chloride Flakes Manufacturer Saudi Ar...

SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE AS A DISINFECTANT

Sodium hypochlorite, commonly known as bleach, is most frequently used as a disinfecting agent. Sodium hypochlorite appears as colorless or slightly yellow watery liquid with an odor of household bleach.  Studies have shown that Sodium hypochlorite is a highly effective disinfectant that has wide ranging applications. It appears that sodium hypochlorite offers an optimal balance between low cost, ease of use, safety, and efficacy than other disinfectants like calcium hypochlorite, ozone, UV and solar disinfection. Also In areas where water is not excessively turbid and is available for drinking, sodium hypochlorite is highly effective. Due to these features of sodium hypochlorite, it is widely used for water treatment systems in many countries. As a disinfectant, sodium hypochlorite kills bacteria, viruses and fungi. In the same way that chlorine disinfects, sodium hypochlorite does too. The demand for disinfectants are widely increased after the COVID outbreak. Sachlo is a leading...

ADVANTAGES OF USING HYDROCHLORIC ACID IN STEEL PICKLING

The purpose of steel pickling and oiling is to remove surface impurities from hot rolled carbon steel, such as rust and carbon scale. Steel is submerged in pickle liquor, a solution of hydrogen chloride acid, to remove impurities. Hydrochloric acid is used for pickling carbon steel with an alloy content of less than 6%. There are many Benefits of using hydrochloric acid in steel pickling. It is a more extensive scale removal process. Also, the deposition of the iron salts on the pickled surface is reduced and penetration of hydrogen by diffusion is low. Moreover, since hydrochloric acid is used, it reduces the heating cost as the pickling solutions are used at room temperature. Since hydrochloric acid is used in steel pickling, it has a huge industrial demand. Sachlo is a leading chemical company in Saudi Arabia since 2005. Sachlo is a leading Hydrochloric acid supplier Saudi Arabia . 

Scope of the Caustic Soda Market

  Sodium hydroxide(NaOH) is a strong alkali which is known as Caustic soda. It is mainly available in two forms, liquid(iye) and solid(flakes).In many industries caustic soda is used as raw material or as an auxiliary chemical, hence the demand is higher. The consumption of caustic soda is increased across many countries. The caustic soda market is highly influenced by Asian customers. The global market for caustic soda is expected to increase at a substantial pace during the forecast period from 2022 to 2028. According to “Caustic soda market” insights 2022, the market size of caustic soda is valued at USD 24850 million in 2022 and it is projected to hit USD 30190 million by 2028. The required CAGR during the review period is 3.3%. The middle east market is also a strong market in the world. There are many chemical companies which produce caustic soda.SACHLO is a  leading Caustic soda manufacturer Saudi Arabia and MENA regions . They produce both caustic soda lye and flakes.
