Sodium Hydroxide 25% Solution

CAS 1310-73-2  ·  Part MC-NAOH25L  · Technical

Twenty-five percent caustic soda, diluted in our Arleta facility. Stays liquid in cold weather and skips the on-site dilution step and its exotherm.

Twenty-five percent caustic is a dilution of the 50% solution, made to order in Arleta and released against a Certificate of Analysis.

Why buy it diluted

Two reasons come up repeatedly. First, 25% does not crystallise at the temperatures an unheated outdoor tank reaches in a Southern California winter, so it stays pumpable without heat tracing. Second, it removes the dilution step from your operation — caustic dilution is strongly exothermic and is a common source of burns and equipment damage when done without proper controls.

Typical uses

  • pH control where the dosing system is sized for a dilute feed
  • Smaller treatment systems that cannot safely handle 50%
  • Sites without the containment or heating for concentrated caustic

Custom concentrations

We blend to other concentrations on request. If your system is designed around a specific strength, tell us the target and we will make it and certify it rather than have you dilute on site.

Documents

Safety data sheets and certificates are available to account holders. Request one below and we send it the same business day — or ask us to attach documents to every shipment automatically so you are not requesting them one at a time.

Read the sheet before the first use

Section 2 covers the hazards, Section 8 the protective equipment actually required, and Section 10 what this must not be stored next to. Storage incompatibility is the single most common cause of serious chemical incidents. How to read an SDS
