Light Soda Ash, also known as sodium carbonate, is a fine white powder or small granular inorganic compound with a bulk density of about 0.5–0.6 g/cm³. With a guaranteed purity of 99.2% min, it offers excellent solubility and dissolves rapidly in water, which makes it highly suitable for industries that require quick reactions and consistent performance.
Due to its stable chemical properties and high purity, Light Soda Ash is widely used in multiple industries. In the detergent and soap industry, it serves as a key raw material for producing washing powders and cleaning agents. In the food industry, it functions as a food additive, acidity regulator, and pH stabilizer. It is also applied in textile dyeing and printing, water treatment, chemical synthesis, and pharmaceuticals, where its fast solubility and high reactivity bring significant advantages.
