Application of sodium carbonate
Sodium carbonate is one of those materials that is widely used in industrial applications for the production or restructuring of chemicals. These applications include the following : 1. Making Glass One of the most prominent uses of its hydrogen (Na2CO3) is the use in glass making. 2% of the global production of sodium carbonate is used in the industry, which results in glass lowering the glass formation temperature (from about 1700 degrees to 1500 degrees) and saving energy consumption, which is very practical and remarkable. 2. Chemical production Sodium carbonate is also used a lot in chemical production. This material is used in various chemicals such as sodium bicarbonate, sodium silicate, sodium triple phosphate, sodium dichromate, sodium aluminate, sodium cyanide etc. 3. Paper production In the paper industry, sodium carbonate is used as an acidity-regulating agent and also for the decolorization of tailings paper. 4. Soap production Soda Ash plays an...
