Borax Decahydrate 25kg

Original price was: $8,500.00.Current price is: $7,950.00.
Borax, also known as sodium borate, is a naturally occurring mineral composed of sodium, boron, oxygen, and water. It is a white, odorless powder that dissolves easily in water, and has a wide range of uses, including as a laundry detergent booster, a multipurpose cleaner, and as a component in the production of glass, ceramics, and enamel. Borax has antifungal and insecticidal properties and is also used in certain industrial applications such as in the production of fiberglass, as a flux in metallurgy, and as a fire retardant. It is considered safe when used as directed, but can be toxic if ingested in large quantities.

Sodium silicate 20litres

Original price was: $5,500.00.Current price is: $5,300.00.
Sodium silicate, commonly known as water glass or liquid glass, is a compound containing sodium oxide (Naā‚‚O) and silica (SiOā‚‚). It is typically represented by the formula Na2SiO3text{Na}_2text{SiO}_3, but it can vary, forming a range of compositions depending on the ratio of sodium oxide to silica.

Properties

  • Physical State: It is usually found in a glassy, crystalline solid form or as a thick, syrupy liquid.
  • Appearance: Colorless to light brown.
  • Solubility: Highly soluble in water, forming a viscous solution.
  • pH: Alkaline, typically around 11-12.

Production

Sodium silicate is produced by fusing sodium carbonate (soda ash) and silica sand at high temperatures. The general reaction is: Na2CO3+SiO2→Na2SiO3+CO2text{Na}_2text{CO}_3 + text{SiO}_2 rightarrow text{Na}_2text{SiO}_3 + text{CO}_2
