Soda ash light – 25kg

Description

Soda Ash Light (25kg) – High Reactivity for Industrial Processes

Soda Ash Light, chemically known as sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃), is a white, free-flowing powder characterised by its lower bulk density and rapid solubility in water. Compared to dense soda ash, the light grade disperses more quickly, making it suitable for applications requiring fast chemical interaction and uniform mixing.

It is an essential raw material in glass manufacturing, detergent formulation, and a wide range of chemical and environmental processes.
