Sodium Carbonate Anhydrous 5kg Sodium Carbonate Anhydrous (soda ash) is a versatile alkali used mainly for making glass, detergents, and paper, and for water softening, but also as a pH adjuster, in chemical manufacturing, food processing, and even as a lab reagent. Its strong alkalinity helps it clean, neutralise acids, and remove water hardness, making it crucial in industrial cleaning, textile dyeing, and refining metals like aluminium. Key Uses: Sodium Carbonate Anhydrous 5kg Glass Manufacturing: Acts as a flux, lowering silica’s melting point for easier glass production, its largest use. Soaps & Detergents: A key ingredient in dry cleaners and powdered soaps, it softens water and boosts cleaning power by converting fats to soluble soaps. Water Treatment: Softens hard water by precipitating calcium and magnesium ions, and adjusts pH. Pulp & Paper: Used in processing wood pulp for paper. Chemicals: A precursor for other sodium compounds like sodium silicates and borax. Textiles & Dy
