caustic soda
caustic soda (sodium hydroxide, NaOH) Strong
alkali prepared industrially by the
electrolysis of salt (sodium chloride, NaCl). It is a white solid that burns skin, with a slippery feel because it absorbs moisture from the air. It also absorbs atmospheric carbon dioxide, forming a crust of sodium carbonate (Na
2CO
3). Caustic soda is used in many industries, such as soapmaking and in bauxite-processing to make
aluminium.
