Product Details :

Caustic soda flakes is a solid form of sodium hydroxide. Caustic soda flakes manufactured by DCM Shriram Ltd. are free from foreign matter, dirt or other visible impurities. The product is widely used in the textile, soaps and detergents, pulp and paper industries and in alumina refineries.

Hydrogen peroxide is a colorless liquid at room temperature with a bitter taste. Small amounts of gaseous hydrogen peroxide occur naturally in the air. Hydrogen peroxide is unstable, decomposing readily to oxygen and water with release of heat.


Hydrogen peroxide is used in many industries. In industry, hydrogen peroxide in higher concentrations is used as a bleach for textiles and paper, as a component of rocket fuels, and for producing foam rubber and organic chemicals. It's also used in medicinal applications and to bleach clothes and hair.

Caustic soda flakes, also known as sodium hydroxide flakes, are a white crystalline compound used in many industrial processes and household products. They are a strong alkaline chemical with a wide range of applications.

Caustic soda flakes are used in:

• Manufacturing: Soap and detergent production, pulp and paper production, and the production of various chemicals
• Household products: Drain cleaners, oven cleaners, and drain pipe cleaners
• Pharmaceuticals: Pain relievers, anticoagulants, and cholesterol-lowering treatments
• Textiles: Dyeing nylon and polyester
• Water treatment: Raising the pH of water by absorbing water and carbon dioxide
• Mining: Acting as a floating agent for various ores, including bauxite

Caustic soda is strongly irritating and corrosive. It can cause severe burns and permanent damage to any tissue that it comes in contact with.
