Introduction:Caustic Soda (Sodium Hydroxide, NaOH) is one of the most essential chemicals in the paper and pulp industry, playing a critical role throughout the pulping, bleaching, and paper production processes. In particular, Flake Caustic Soda (Payet NaOH) is widely preferred due to its high purity, controlled reactivity, and ease of handling. These characteristics are vital for achieving consistent pulp quality, efficient chemical recovery, and stable large-scale production.
Flake Caustic Soda is a solid, crystalline form of Sodium Hydroxide produced by concentrating and solidifying liquid NaOH. Its flake structure allows precise dosing, safer storage, and reduced contamination risks compared to lower-grade alternatives.
One of the primary applications of caustic soda in the paper industry is chemical pulping, particularly in kraft and soda pulping processes. NaOH is used to break down lignin, allowing the separation of usable cellulose fibers from wood.
Caustic soda is also essential in pulp bleaching stages, where it helps adjust pH levels and enhances the effectiveness of bleaching agents.
Compared to liquid caustic soda, the flake form offers significant logistical and operational benefits including easier storage, safer transportation, and consistent dissolution.
