Caustic Soda 32% – Powerful Chemical for Cleaning, pH Regulation & Industrial Applications

Information

With this Caustic Soda 32 % (approx. 1330 kg) you are bringing an industrial standard solution into your business: strongly alkaline, highly versatile and indispensable for cleaning, degreasing, pH adjustment, neutralisation and the production of cleaning agents or chemicals. Ideal for businesses, workshops, industrial installations and maintenance projects.

Benefits

• Strongly alkaline and highly reactive: an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) at a concentration of approximately 32 %; very strongly alkaline, colourless and fully soluble in water.
• Versatile applications: suitable for removing grease and oil, degreasing components, cleaning tanks, pipework or installations, neutralising acidic waste streams, pH adjustment, and as a raw material for soap, detergents and other chemical applications.
• Efficient & cost-effective at high volumes: thanks to the high concentration, only a small dose is needed; 1 kg of caustic soda (prepared as instructed) is sufficient for one litre of cleaning or rinsing solution, keeping the cost and transport per litre of finished product low.
• Suitable for industry (bulk packaging): supplied in a large IBC/tank (approximately 1330 kg net), ideal for projects with frequent use or large-scale cleaning or production.

Areas of application

Caustic Soda 32 % is highly suitable for:

• Industrial cleaning of tanks, pipework, components or machinery: effectively removes grease, oil, resins, grinding residue and other contaminants.
• Pre-treatment or degreasing of metal surfaces prior to further processing or coating.
• pH adjustment or neutralisation in production processes or water treatment.
• Production of soap and detergents, or as a raw material in chemical production chains.
• Unblocking or cleaning pipework (please note: only suitable for materials that are resistant to caustic solutions).

Technical & packaging information

• Concentration: approx. 32 % sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in water.
• Packaging: approx. 1330 kg in an IBC tank (bulk packaging).
• Use: dilute before use; dosage and dilution depend on the application (cleaning, degreasing, pH adjustment, etc.).
• Compatibility: suitable for use with chemical-resistant materials (such as PE, PP, PVC), but must be strictly avoided with aluminium, magnesium, zinc or other sensitive metals.

Safety information

Caustic soda is highly corrosive and requires careful handling:

• Always wear protective clothing, chemical-resistant gloves and eye/face protection.
• Avoid contact with skin or eyes; in case of contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water.
• Use in a well-ventilated area; avoid inhaling vapours or mists.
• Not suitable for use on materials that are sensitive to caustic alkalis (metals such as aluminium, magnesium, zinc, etc.).
• Do not use near foodstuffs or in systems for direct drinking water, unless expressly suitable for such applications.
