What is Soda Ash used for?
Over half of all soda ash production is used in glass manufacturing, but it is also used in a wide range of other products, such as powdered detergents and soaps and rechargeable batteries, as well as being extensively used in metallurgical processes and across the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. Soda ash is the 10th most consumed inorganic compound in the world. It is a safe, simple compound and a key component in a variety of industrial processes, from the manufacture of glass to dry powder detergents and lithium-ion batteries. It is also an important ingredient in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Sodium carbonate, commonly known as soda ash in its anhydrous form, is the sodium salt of carbonic acid with the chemical formula Na2CO3. It occurs naturally in arid regions and is often extracted from mineral deposits of trona ore. Sodium carbonate is a stable, non-toxic, odorless white powder that absorbs moisture and forms a strong alkaline aqueous solution. Sodium carbonate monohydrate (Na2CO3 H2O) has an added molecule of water and is often used as a buffer.
