They are a mid strength alkali crystal, not as strong as caustic soda but much safer to use.The high level of hydration makes this crystal extremely water soluble; in fact the crystals will dissolve in their own water of crystallisation to make a supersaturated sodium carbonate liquor over 35oC.Soda Crystals see the bulk of their use in household cleaning and laundry but they also have a growing use in industrial cleaning, in any situation where grease and oil build up is a problem.Typical customers include oil works and oil re-processors, dairies, Chinese cash and carries, chip shops and takeaways.There are many different applications for cleaning with Soda Crystals, from putting dry crystals onto a greasy floor and sweeping them around, to making up a hot or cold solution or slurry.The maximum strength of a solution is around 40% by weight and can be obtained by heating the neat crystals over 33oC, at which point they will dissolve in their own water of crystallisation.
