Soda Ash Light

Soda Ash Light, also known as sodium carbonate light, is a less dense form of soda ash, with the density of 550-720kg/m³. It is a white, odorless powder that is highly soluble in water and has a relatively high pH value, making it an alkaline compound and a useful neutralizing agent in various industrial processes.

What Are Main Applications Of Soda Ash Light

Production of glass: The main ingredient used in the production of tableware glass is soda glass, which is a slightly water-soluble blend of calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate, and silica sand that melts at about 570°C.
‍Water Softener: Sodium carbonate is used to soften hard water by precipitating insoluble solids in place of calcium and magnesium ions.
‍Cooking and Dietary supplements: Sodium carbonate, which is used in cooking to enhance browning and gluten development, is a weaker base than lye but stronger than baking soda. Moon cakes, kansui, and other dishes employ it. It serves as an acidity regulator in the food sector and in sherbet powder.
Other Applications: Strong bases like sodium carbonate are employed in aquarium water, swimming pools, and chemical reactions. It is safe to handle and reasonably priced since it maintains pH in froth flotation, guarantees appropriate dye bonding, and controls pH.
