Caustic Soda or Sodium Hydroxide 98% is used in many industries, so that it is in the category of most used chemicals.
Sodium hydroxide is an ionic compound with sodium features as a cationic and hydroxide substance as an anionic substance.
Industries which use caustic soda include such as petrochemicals, textiles, pharmaceuticals, pulp and paper, food, and many others industries.
Sodium Hydroxide use in food industry is as an additive to adjust pH, digestion, Separating the skin of fruits and vegetables and other uses.
Also it should be noted that caustic soda is a very alkaline and Corrosive substance, which is why it is used as a liquid solution.

Other Sodium hydroxide use in the food industry

Sodium Hydroxide use in Food industry in for olive bitterness or in the process of producing a kind of pretzels to create a bitterness in the product.
It is also used to cut off potato peel, tomatoes and other fruits in the canning industry.

LITHIUM AND ITS COMPOUNDS

LITHIUM AND ITS COMPOUNDS Lithium (from Greek: λίθος, translate. lithos, lit. ‘stone’) is a chemical element with symbol Li and atomic number 3. It is a soft, silvery-white alkali metal. Under standard conditions, it is the lightest metal and the lightest solid element. Like all alkali metals, lithium is highly reactive and flammable, and is stored in mineral oil. When cut, it exhibits a metallic luster, but moist air corrodes it quickly to a dull silvery gray, then black tarnish. It never occurs freely in nature, but only in (usually ionic) compounds, such as pegmatitic minerals, which were once the main source of lithium. Due to its solubility as an ion, it is present in ocean water and is commonly obtained from brines.  Lithium metal is isolated electrolytically from a mixture of lithium chloride and potassium chloride. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF LITHIUM AND ITS COMPOUNDS Lithium is a soft, the lightest, silver-white, highly reactive metallic element in Group 1 of periodic table;

use of caustic soda for cleaning

What is caustic soda for cleaning? Many of my friends asked me how to use caustic soda to clear oil and dirt at home? Is it safe to use caustic soda at home? What kinds of things can we use caustic soda for cleaning them? Caustic soda, or sodium hydroxide, is a common commercial cleaning product, which turns certain substances, including grease, fats, oils, and proteins into a water soluble material. Caustic sodas are generally used for heavy duty cleaning projects, such as clogged drains, storage equipment and preparation machines. If you want to use caustic soda no matter at home or at work or even if you are a main user of caustic soda , please use Protective gloves and goggles, because Caustic soda is highly corrosive so proper safety measures should be taken to avoid contact with skin or eye.
