Sodium hydroxide is mainly used in papermaking,production of cellulose pulp, production of soap,synthetic detergent,synthetic fatty acid and refining of animal and vegetable oils. Textile printing and dyeing industry is used as desizing agent,scouring agent and mercerizing agent for cotton cloth.Chemical industry is used to produce borax, sodium cyanide,formic acid,oxalic acid,phenol,etc.The petroleum industry is used for refining petroleum products and drilling mud in oil fields.It is also used for surface treatment of aluminum oxide,metal zinc and metal copper,as well as glass, enamel,leather making,medicine,dyes and pesticides.Food grade products are used in the food industry as acid neutralizers,peelers for oranges,peaches,etc.detergents for empty bottles, cans,etc.as well as decolorizers and deodorants.
When sodium hydroxide is used as a basic reagent,it can be used as a neutralizer,a matching masking agent,a precipitating agent,a precipitating masking agent,an absorbent for a small amount of carbon dioxide and water,a color developer for the determination of ketosterols by thin-layer analysis,etc.It is widely used in the manufacture of various sodium salts,soaps,pulp,finishing of cotton fabrics,silk, viscose fibers,regeneration of rubber products,metal cleaning,electroplating, bleaching,etc.
In cosmetic creams and creams,sodium hydroxide and stearic acid can be saponified to act as emulsifiers,which can be used to make cream,shampoo, etc.
