Caustic Soda Pearls 99% (Sodium Hydroxide Pearls 99%)

Gandi Chemical Solutions supplies Caustic Soda Pearls 99% (Sodium Hydroxide Pearls 99%) (CAS 1310-73-2) to manufacturers, water treatment plants and industrial processors. Pearls are the free-flowing form, specified where a screw or volumetric feeder has to meter the solid accurately and dust has to stay out of the air. Enquiries for Caustic Soda Pearls 99% are quoted against this listing. Priced by quotation, with a current safety data sheet on every consignment.

Pearl-form caustic soda offers the same 99% purity as high-grade flakes but in a rounder, more free-flowing particle that some processes prefer for dosing and dissolution characteristics. Handling and storage precautions are identical to flake caustic — highly corrosive, moisture-reactive, requires full PPE.

Where caustic soda pearls 99% is used

• Automated dosing systems where a free-flowing solid is required
• Laboratory and pilot-plant alkali make-up
• Pharmaceutical and cosmetic manufacture at controlled purity
• Water treatment pH correction with screw or volumetric feeders
• Chemical synthesis requiring accurate solid dosing

Key features

• CAS 1310-73-2, NaOH.
• Also ordered as Sodium Hydroxide, Caustic soda, Sodium hydrate.
• Packed to your requirement.

Specification and grade

Sodium hydroxide at 99% supplied as pearls — small near-spherical beads, CAS 1310-73-2. The form is the point: pearls flow freely, meter accurately through screw and volumetric feeders, and generate far less airborne dust than flake, which is why they dominate automated and enclosed dosing.

Handling and storage

The same corrosive and exothermic behaviour as flake, with a lower dust exposure. Still deliquescent — pearls cake into a solid mass in a humid store and then defeat the feeder they were bought for. Keep containers sealed with the desiccant intact, exclude aluminium, zinc and tin, and add pearls to water rather than water to pearls.

Packaging and supply

Packed to your requirement. Where pearls feed a metering system, tell us the feeder type — pearl size distribution matters to screw feeders and we can quote to a size specification rather than a generic pearl.
