Sodium Meta Silicate is an alkaline, water-soluble silicate salt in powder or granular form, widely used as a cleaning agent, corrosion inhibitor, and deflocculant across various industries. Known for its excellent emulsifying, wetting, and buffering properties, it is a powerful chemical used in detergents, ceramics, textiles, water treatment, and metal cleaning.
Sodium Meta Silicate is available in anhydrous and pentahydrate forms, offering flexibility for different industrial applications. Its ability to soften water, disperse soil, and prevent corrosion makes it a key ingredient in heavy-duty cleaning and chemical formulations.
Applications
- Detergents & Cleaners : Used in industrial and household cleaners, degreasers, and dishwashing formulations.
- Chemical Industry : Acts as a dispersing and buffering agent.
- Ceramics : Used in the deflocculation of clay for better moldability.
- Textile Processing : Helps in scouring and bleaching processes.
- Metal Treatment : Applied in metal cleaning, rust removal, and corrosion prevention.
- Water Treatment : Acts as a corrosion inhibitor and pH stabilizer in water systems.
