Description
Sodium Silicate Liquid 38-40 Bé
Sodium Silicate Liquid 38-40 Bé (CAS 1344-09-8, molecular formula Na2SiO3) is a formulation raw material used by detergent, personal care and industrial cleaning manufacturers who need stable active matter and reproducible performance. China Chemicals supplies it at Solids 35 – 40% in pack sizes from 1 L through to 200 L Drum, so laboratory trial quantities and full production volumes can be sourced from the same specification.
It is also traded as Water Glass, Liquid Glass, Sodium Metasilicate Solution. Every consignment ships with a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis and the current Safety Data Sheet, and material is stored and picked under stock rotation so you receive product well inside its shelf life.
Typical applications
- Detergent builder and anti-redeposition agent
- Adhesive for corrugated board and cartons
- Soil stabilisation and grouting
- Foundry sand binder in casting
- Silica gel and catalyst manufacture
