Sodium hydroxide (Na OH) is supplied as solid white granules. It rapidly dissolves in water and the process generates heat and results in the formation of concentrated solutions of sodium hydroxide also known as caustic soda or lye. Concentrated solutions in water are clear in colour.


Sodium hydroxide is used for many applications including:

* Heavy duty degreaser

* Cleaner for milk parlour pipework
* Drain cleaners
* Hair straighteners
* Metal polishes
* Oven cleaners & carbon removal
* Paint & varnish stripping
* Aquarium products
* For Biodiesel Production (addition to methanol to form sodium methoxide)


Generally sodium hydroxide is used as a solution, dissolved in water. Dilutions will vary depending on intended use.
For clearing blocked drains, the powder is used directly by slowly pouring into the drain opening, followed by adding hot water extremely slowly and carefully.
