Sodium Silicate Liquid

Liquid Sodium Silicate is a major compound used for formulating chemicals like silicate gel and precipitated silica. Apart from this, Sodium Silicate Liquid has an extensive usage in ceramic industry, paper industry, detergent industry as well as electrodes manufacturing companies.

We cater to varied requirements of the clients by making available the Liquid Sodium Silicate in different grades like Neutral Sodium Silicate Liquid and Sodium Silicate Alkaline Liquid.

Properties

Its solution is alkaline. If add strong acids, weak acids and even electrolytes, it will hydrolyze and precipitate silica when it is heated or at room temperature.

Packaging and storage

It is packaged with clean iron drum, plastic drum or tank truck and sealed.
