caustic soda pearls uses in industry and cleaning

product introduction

Caustic soda pearls, also called sodium hydroxide pearls (NaOH), are small white spherical granules with a purity of 99% minimum. They dissolve easily in water, producing a strong alkaline solution widely used in both industrial and household applications. Our caustic soda pearls are uniform in size (0.8–1.0 mm), non-dusting, and packed safely for global export.

main uses of caustic soda pearls

1. Soap and detergent manufacturing – caustic soda pearls act as a key saponification agent, helping convert fats and oils into soap.

2. Textile industry – used in mercerizing cotton fabrics, bleaching, and removing waxes or oils from fibers.

3. Water treatment – effectively neutralizes acids and adjusts pH levels in municipal and industrial wastewater.

4. Paper and pulp – helps separate lignin from cellulose fibers during the pulping process.

5. Chemical manufacturing – serves as a basic raw material for producing sodium salts, dyes, and other organic chemicals.

6. Food and beverage industry – in controlled concentrations, it is used for cleaning equipment and peeling fruits and vegetables.
