Sodium bicarbonate NaHCO3 (other names: baking soda, drinking soda, sodium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate) is a crystalline salt, but it is most often found in the form of a fine white powder.
Sodium bicarbonate is non-toxic, fire- and explosion-proof.
It is a fine-grained powder, which causes irritation when it comes into contact with mucous membranes. Continuous work in an atmosphere contaminated with sodium bicarbonate dust may cause irritation of the respiratory tract.
Baking soda is registered as a food additive E500.
Description Sodium bicarbonate, E500ii
Sodium bicarbonate is an inorganic compound that exhibits properties characteristic of salts of a strong base and a weak acid. Its aqueous solution has a weak alkaline reaction. The substance reacts with acids, when heated to 60 degrees, it decomposes into sodium carbonate, water and carbon dioxide.
The industrial method for producing sodium bicarbonate is ammonia chloride.
Sodium bicarbonate is a fine white powder.
Sodium bicarbonate is non-toxic, fireproof. With prolonged exposure to the skin and mucous membranes, it causes irritation, therefore, when working with it, it is necessary to use appropriate protective equipment.
Soda is packed in bags of 25 or 50 kg, as well as in cardboard boxes with a capacity of 500 g. Raw materials can be transported by any means of transport. Storage of sodium bicarbonate is organized in closed dry rooms. To prevent clumping, products are not allowed to moisten and the tightness of the factory packaging is not allowed.
Sodium bicarbonate has a wide range of uses. It is bought for use in the following industries:
– non-ferrous metallurgy;
– in the production of household chemicals;
– as a foam generator in the production of specialized detergent compositions;
– for the manufacture of fire extinguishers, cleaning agents for gas mixtures;
– in textile production (soda is a component of many types of rubber, artificial leather, used to process natural raw materials – hides, cotton, silk);
– production of foam and other synthetic materials, as well as paints and varnishes;
– medical production, as a weak antiseptic.
Sodium bicarbonate is also used in the food industry as an additive E500. It acts mainly as a baking powder, added to pastries, desserts, sweet drinks.
