    CAUSTIC SODA SOLUTIONS


    LIQUID SODIUM HYDROXIDE

    MATERIAL & FUNCTION


    Liquid Caustic soda is a colorless, odorless liquid. It is usually produced as part of
    the same process that creates chlorine. Used as a neutralizing agent, Caustic Soda
    is an important component in the petroleum, pulp and paper and alumina
    industries. Caustic soda is also used in a wide range of chemical processes

    PRECAUTIONS:
    This product is classified as a Dangerous Good for transport and storage purposes, and
    is classified by worksafe as hazardous. Consult the material safety data sheet for
    details. In general, protective clothing and eye protection are required. Sodium
    hydroxide can produce severe burns to skin and permanent eye damage.

    APPLICATION
    Food Industry:
    CIP cleaning of vats and tanks. Suitable for tank cleaning in the Dairy Industry. Use
    approximately 125 mL in 100L. In all cases rinse thoroughly after use. Check final
    rinsing with pH paper (pH <9). Allow tank to drain after rinsing.
    General Cleaning
    Industrial Cleaning of floors and machinery from foods and fat deposits. Use 0.1-4.0
    % sodium hydroxide (200mL to 8L per 100 L of water). A detergent wash before
    rinsing will assist in removal of residual alkali and soaps.
    – drains. For unblocking grease traps and drains. Use 1L neat for normal household
    drains (caution – heat, spitting and blowback may occur).
