Caustic soda (NaOH), also known as sodium hydroxide, refers to a stable compound that is manufactured through various methods, such as Castner-Kellner process, Nelson Diaphragm cell, and Loewig’s process. It is also industrially produced through the electrolysis of brine solution and can easily neutralize acids. It is widely available in various forms, such as pellets, powders, flakes, and solutions. As a result, NaOH is utilized in the automotive, textiles, soaps and detergents, and steel industries across the globe.

NaOH is waxy, white solid, bitter, strongly alkaline in nature, and has a soapy feel. It is highly soluble in water, moderately soluble in alcohol, forms aqueous solutions, and has a melting point of 591K. In addition, it has a molar mass of 39.997 g/mol, a density of 2.13 g/cm³, and a boiling point of 1.388 °C. It has a high acidity of 13 and a higher viscosity of 78 mPas.              

Presently, the rising demand for NaOH in the manufacturing of pulp, paper, petroleum products, soap and detergents, and washing soda represents one of the key factors driving the market. Besides this, the growing utilization of NaOH as a drainpipe cleaner to unclog drains is positively influencing the market. Additionally, the increasing employment of NaOH in the extraction of aluminum by purifying bauxite in various industries is contributing to the growth of the market. Apart from this, the rising adoption of NaOH as a reagent in laboratories is strengthening the growth of the market. Moreover, the increasing demand for NaOH for the neutralization and scrubbing of acid waste sources is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. In addition, the rising demand for NaOH to remove grease buildup from ovens and other electrical products is supporting the growth of the market. Furthermore, the increasing demand for NaOH to maintain the safety and cleanliness of swimming pools by eliminating harmful metals, such as lead and copper, is propelling the growth of the market.
