Tokuyama Sodium silicate cullet Medium mol

Tokuyama Sodium silicate cullet Medium mol is generally not used as it is. Instead, it is usually dissolved using an autoclave or other equipment so it can be applied as sodium silicate (water glass). Dissolved sodium silicate water glass is used as a raw material for products in the chemical industry, such as precipitated silica(white carbon) and silica gel. It is also utilized in civil engineering applications when dissolved into sodium silicate (water glass), which is used to harden soil and prevent water leakage.Tokuyama produces sodium silicate from soda ash and caustic soda, which are our products, as a source of alkali and from silica sand as a source of silica.
