Sodium Hydroxide AR 500g

Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) AR (Analytical Reagent) grade is a high-purity form used extensively in labs for titrations, preparing precise solutions, and various research like cell staining; industrially, it’s crucial for soap making (saponification), paper/textile processing, pH control, water treatment, and as a powerful degreaser in oven/drain cleaners, thanks to its strong alkaline nature that dissolves fats and neutralizes acids.

Key Uses of NaOH AR Grade
In Laboratories & Research:
Titrations: Standardizing acid solutions (e.g., with phenolphthalein indicator) to determine concentrations.
Solution Preparation: Making accurate, high-purity solutions for experiments.
Cell Biology: Used in cell staining, decellularization, and DNA extraction.
Water Analysis: Adjusting pH in analytical procedures.
Industrial & Manufacturing:
Soap & Detergents: Key ingredient in saponification (reacts with fats/oils to form soap).
Paper & Pulp: Processing wood pulp and textiles.
Cleaning Products: Main component in strong drain and oven cleaners due to its ability to dissolve grease and organic matter.
Petroleum Refining: Removing sulfuric and organic acids from petroleum products.
Textile Processing: Processing cotton fabrics.
Water Treatment: Adjusting water pH and precipitating metals.
Food Industry (Specific Grades):
Olive Curing: Used to remove bitterness from olives, making them palatable.
Safety Note: Sodium Hydroxide is highly corrosive, causing severe burns to skin and eyes, and requires careful handling with PPE (gloves, eye protection) and in well-ventilated areas.
