Sodium Silicate Liquid

Chemical formula for our offered Sodium Silicate Liquid is Na2O.xSiO2 + H2O (x=1,6-3,5). The molar ratio is known to be the ratio of Sodium Oxide to Silicon Oxide, depending upon which the classification of silicates is done. The liquid form of Sodium Silicate is quite stable and is generally greenish blue in color which is used for commercial purposes, however, the pure composition has a glassy or colorless appearance. This liquid is applicable in almost every sector due to its distinctive properties both physical and chemical. Depending on these properties, it is known to be one of the versatile and commonly used chemical.

Applications:

Some of the sectors in which the mentioned Sodium Silicate Liquid is used are listed below:

• Building & construction: This is added into matrix for enhancing resistance properties to heat and acid. It is also acts as a  carbon-dioxide binder and find usage in geopolymer concrete.
• Paper: Rigid cardboard tubes can be prepared by wisely using the gluing properties of sodium silicate.
• Civil Engineering: In order to avoid the further leaching process, this helps in fixing polluted matrix.
• Cosmetics: During packaging of cosmetics, this is added for preventing corrosion of metallic material.
