Alkaline, Neutral and Solutions
Sodium silicate, often referred to as liquid glass, is a versatile inorganic chemical compound with a wide range of industrial applications. It is a colorless, viscous liquid that solidifies when exposed to air or heat. Sodium silicate is used as a binding agent in industries such as construction, where it binds together particles in cement and refractory materials, and in the automotive sector for manufacturing brake linings and foundry molds. It also finds use in detergents and soaps as a corrosion inhibitor and emulsifying agent, and in water treatment processes to control pH levels and precipitate impurities. The varied properties and applications of sodium silicate make it a valuable component in several industries.
Sodium Silicate, also known as water glass, it has two forms: liquid and solid.The liquid is common, colorless clear or light gray deup. The solid is light blue or light green crystals, transparent or semi-transparent .Sodium Silicate is made from sodium oxide and silicon dioxide. Application: 1. Chemicals: Raw material for the manufacture of amorphous silica, silica gel, molecular screens and white fillers. 2. Detergents: Additive for alkalinity control and corrosion inhabition. 3. Textiles: (1)Stabilizer in bleaching with hydrogen-peroxide. (2)Metal sequestering agent. (3)PH regulator. 4. Paper: (1)Adhesive for corrugated cardboard. (2)Stabilizer in bleaching with hydrogen-peroxide. 5. Foundry: Binder of molding sands. 6. Mining: Additive for mineral pelletizing. 7. Construction: Floor consolidation. 8. Welding: Binder in manufacture of rods. 9. Metallurgy and Refractory: Materials Setting accelerator for cement and refractories curing ( gunited)
Specification Product name Sodium silicate CAS 1344-09-8 Molecular formula Na2SiO3 Molecular weight 122.06 EINECS 215-687-4 Melting point 1410 C(lit.) Boiling point 2355 C(lit.) Density 2.33 g/mL at 25 C(lit.) Form Colorless liquid Water Solubility very slightly soluble cold water Application It is mainly used as raw material for adhesives, silica gel and silica, filler for soap industry and rubber waterproof agent Sodium silicate, commonly known as sodium silicate, is a water-soluble silicate, and its aqueous solution is commonly known as water glass, which is a mineral binder. Water glass commonly used in buildings is the aqueous solution of sodium silicate (Na2O nSiO2).
Sodium silicate is a clear, odourless, viscous liquid. It has a molar ratio of 3.27 and a total solids content of 36.8%. It is produced by fusing sand (SiO2) with sodium carbonate which produces solid glass (cullet). The glass is then dissolved in water and steam under high pressure which produces the sodium silicate solution also known as water glass. It is widely used in industry as sealants, binders, deflocculants, emulsifiers and buffers. It is commonly used to seal conrete and cement.
