The soda ash has various applications across different industry verticals, for instance, manufacturing of soaps, detergents, glass, water bleaching, and as an ingredient in the food industry. The detergent industry is one of the oldest end-users of soda ash which is used in the manufacturing of many products. It is the primary raw material in the formulations of soaps, detergents, and other cleaning compounds. As a result of rising awareness related to personal hygiene, liquid soap is also preferred and holds a considerable position in the market.
Sodium carbonate, Na2CO3, (also known as washing soda, soda ash, and soda crystals) is the inorganic compound with the formula Na2CO3 and its various hydrates.
Soda Ash Applications
Soda Ash is used as a cleansing agent for domestic purposes like washing clothes. Sodium carbonate is a component of many dry soap powders.
Soda Ash is used for removing the temporary and permanent hardness of the water.
Soda Ash is used in the manufacture of glass, soap, and paper. (see glass manufacture).
Soda Ash is used in the manufacture of sodium compounds like borax.
Sodium carbonate serves as a flux for silica, lowering the melting point of the mixture to something achievable without special materials. This "soda glass" is mildly water-soluble, so some calcium carbonate is added to the melt mixture to make the glass insoluble. Bottle and window glass (soda-lime glass) is made by melting such mixtures of sodium carbonate, calcium carbonate, and silica sand (silicon dioxide (SiO2)). When these materials are heated, the carbonates release carbon dioxide. In this way, sodium carbonate is a source of sodium oxide. Soda-lime glass has been the most common form of glass for centuries.
Hard water contains dissolved compounds, usually calcium or magnesium compounds. Sodium carbonate is used for removing the temporary and permanent hardness of the water.
As sodium carbonate is water-soluble and magnesium carbonate and calcium carbonate are insoluble, so it is used to soften water by removing Mg2+ and Ca2+. These ions form insoluble solid precipitates upon treatment with carbonate ions:
Sodium carbonate is used by the brick industry as a wetting agent to reduce the amount of water needed to extrude the clay. In casting, it is referred to as a "bonding agent" and is used to allow wet alginate to adhere to gelled alginate. Sodium carbonate is used in toothpaste, where it acts as a foaming agent and an abrasive, and to temporarily increase mouth pH.
Sodium carbonate is also used in the processing and tanning of animal hides.
Uses of Sodium Carbonate (Na2CO3)
The uses of sodium carbonate are listed below.
Sodium Carbonate is used in the manufacture of detergents, soaps, paper. Also used in the manufacture of water glass (sodium silicate), borax, sodium phosphate, and many other sodium compounds.
Sodium Carbonate is used as a wetting agent in the brick industry
Sodium Carbonate is used as an abrasive and foaming agent in toothpaste.
It is used as a pH modifier.
Sodium Carbonate is used as a water softener – Hard water which consists of magnesium and calcium ions is precipitated by carbonate.
As a laboratory reagent to standardize acids and as an analytical reagent.
