Liquid Caustic Soda is a 50% sodium hydroxide solution, clear and viscous alkaline liquid, highly corrosive and miscible with water, manufactured through electrolytic processes for industrial-grade purity. It serves as a strong base for neutralization and saponification, with controlled viscosity for safe handling in bulk operations as referenced in industry alkali specifications and ChemSpider solubility data.
SoleChem, an ISO 9001:2015 certified chemical supplier based in Türkiye, delivers Liquid Caustic Soda (CAS 1310-73-2) to customers in more than 40 countries.
