Sodium Silicate solution is a slightly hazy, viscous alkaline liquid with a number of synonyms including water glass, liquid glass, silicic acid and soluble glass.
Uses of sodium silicate include:
- In the manufacture of detergents to prevent mineral deposits and to soften water
- In the mixing and manufacture of sealants and adhesives
- Concrete and cement (Reacts with calcium hydroxide to form calcium silicate hydrate that fills cracks)
- In ceramic production as a drying agent
- Desiccants and drying agents in a variety of applications
A major use of sodium silicate is in the production of detergents where the chemical is used to prevent mineral deposits by controlling the hardness of water. It is also a widely used component in the mixing and manufacture of sealants and adhesives as well as in the production of cement, concrete and general masonry products.
