ADVANTAGES OF Sodium Hydroxide

  • Very powerful product
  • Very versatile
  • High basicity product
  • Excellent water solubility
  • Easy to transport, store and use
  • Used in many industries

FREQUENT USES OF Sodium Hydroxide

  • Allows a good control of the pH (water) (base to adjust the pH)
  • Neutralization of acid environments
  • Used to capture acidic fumes or gases (thanks to its powerful
    base to neutralize them) (Application: Wash tower)
  • Allows the extraction of certain metals by precipitation (mining
    applications)
  • Produce better quality products (for pulp and paper and oil
    companies)
  • Example: refining vegetable oils uses caustic soda to remove the
    fatty acids – which eliminates the unpleasant taste of the oil

The difference between liquid and solid sodium hydroxide

Liquid Sodium Hydroxide

UBA guarantees secure distribution for 10% to 50% concentrated liquid sodium hydroxide (liquid caustic soda). Our private fleet ensures prompt delivery for bulk and partial bulk volumes. We also offer liquid sodium hydroxide in other formats such as totes, delcans, pails, drums and other smaller sizes. Additional chemical distribution services are offered by UBA to ensure stress-free inventory management for your caustic soda needs.

The main use of 10% sodium hydroxide is as an analytical dosing agent whereas other concentrations of sodium hydroxide can be used in chemical manufacturing, pulp and paper, petroleum, rubber, textile, water treatment, and many other industries.

Solid sodium hydroxide (pearls)

UBA also provides solid sodium hydroxide in 22.7 kg and 25 kg bags. Pearls of sodium hydroxide (solid caustic soda) supplied in this format by UBA are much simpler to transport, thus are perfectly suited for certain communities located far from our distribution centers. In addition, solid sodium hydroxides’ higher concentration [99% minimum] serves industries who may need this product less frequently or may be located in remote areas. Solid sodium hydroxide is used by the same types of industries as liquid sodium hydroxide.

UBA is uniquely specialized in the sale of packaged chemicals and sets itself apart through its expertise in the delivery of bulk and partial-bulk chemicals.
