Soda ash, also known as sodium carbonate, is one of the most important and widely used chemicals in industry, with a variety of applications. The primary use of soda ash is in the glass industry. It appears as a solid, white powder that is odorless and absorbs moisture. Soda ash is also widely used in the detergent and disinfectant industries to protect against various fungi and viruses.
Types of Soda Ash
Soda Ash Dense:
This type of soda ash is commonly used in the glass industry, chemical manufacturing, water purification, soap production, and paper-making. Dense soda ash is primarily used in solid form.
Soda Ash Light:
This type contains about 0.5% sodium chloride and is used as a pH regulator in the chemical industry. The key difference between dense and light soda ash is their density and their respective uses. Otherwise, their chemical composition is similar.
