Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate 500gm

Original price was: KSh180.00.Current price is: KSh100.00.

Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate, commonly known as baking soda, is a versatile chemical compound with the formula NaHCO₃. It appears as a white, crystalline powder with a slightly alkaline taste. It’s widely used in baking as a leavening agent, helping dough rise by producing carbon dioxide gas when it reacts with an acid. Beyond baking, it has various applications including cleaning, deodorizing, and neutralizing acids. In personal care, it’s used in toothpaste and antacids. I appreciate its multifunctional uses and effectiveness in both kitchen and household tasks.

Aluminum Ammonium Sulphate

Original price was: KSh650.00.Current price is: KSh500.00.
Aluminum ammonium sulfate, also known as ammonium alum or just alum, is a chemical compound with the formula (NH4)Al(SO4)2·12H2O. It's a white crystalline solid commonly used in water purification, leather tanning, and as a mordant in dyeing textiles. In water purification, alum acts as a coagulant to remove impurities by causing suspended particles to clump together, making it easier for filtration to remove them. In leather tanning, it helps to stabilize the leather by tightening the collagen fibers. And in dyeing textiles, alum helps the dye adhere to the fabric. However, it's important to note that excessive exposure to aluminum compounds like alum can be harmful, so it's typically used with caution and proper safety measures.
