Sodium silicate, often referred to as liquid glass, is a versatile inorganic chemical compound with a wide range of industrial applications. It is a colorless, viscous liquid that solidifies when exposed to air or heat. Sodium silicate is used as a binding agent in industries such as construction, where it binds together particles in cement and refractory materials, and in the automotive sector for manufacturing brake linings and foundry molds. It also finds use in detergents and soaps as a corrosion inhibitor and emulsifying agent, and in water treatment processes to control pH levels and precipitate impurities. The varied properties and applications of sodium silicate make it a valuable component in several industries.
Sodium Silicate, also known as water glass, it has two forms: liquid and solid.The liquid is common, colorless clear or light gray deup. The solid is light blue or light green crystals, transparent or semi-transparent .Sodium Silicate is made from sodium oxide and silicon dioxide.

1) Sodium Silicate Liquid
Liquid Sodium Silicate is a major compound used for formulating chemicals like silicate gel and precipitated silica. Apart from this, Sodium Silicate Liquid has an
extensive usage in ceramic industry, paper industry, detergent industry as well as electrodes manufacturing companies. We cater to varied requirements of the clients by
making available the Liquid Sodium Silicate in different grades like Neutral Sodium Silicate Liquid and Sodium Silicate Alkaline Liquid.
Properties
Its solution is alkaline. If add strong acids, weak acids and even electrolytes, it will hydrolyze and precipitate silica when it is heated or at
room temperature.
Packaging and storage
It is packaged with clean iron drum, plastic drum or tank truck and sealed.
