description Product Description

Used as an adhesive in paper and cardboard production due to its strong binding properties when dried. Also serves as a precursor in the production of silica gel, which is used for moisture absorption in various packaging.

Commonly found in detergents and cleaning agents where it acts as a corrosion inhibitor and provides alkalinity to enhance cleaning performance.

Employed in water treatment to control corrosion in metal pipes by forming a protective layer.

Used in construction as a component of cement and concrete to accelerate setting and improve strength, or as a coating to enhance resistance to moisture and fire.

Applied in the manufacturing of refractory materials and as a binder in foundry sands for metal casting.

Also utilized in egg preservation by sealing pores in shells to extend shelf life.
