:Sodium silicate
Description:
Sodium silicate, commonly referred to as water glass or liquid glass, is a chemical compound composed of sodium oxide (Na2O) and silica (SiO2). It is typically found in a soluble form, appearing as a colorless or white solid or a viscous liquid. Sodium silicate is known for its high alkalinity and is soluble in water, forming an alkaline solution. It exhibits a range of properties, including adhesive, binding, and sealing capabilities, making it useful in various industrial applications such as cement, detergents, and paper manufacturing. Additionally, it serves as a corrosion inhibitor and is utilized in the production of silica gel. Sodium silicate can also act as a pH regulator and is employed in water treatment processes. Its chemical structure can vary, leading to different ratios of sodium to silica, which influences its properties and applications. Safety considerations include handling it with care due to its caustic nature, which can cause skin and eye irritation.
