Soda Ash Dense – Sodium Carbonate for Industrial Use

Soda Ash Dense is sodium carbonate used in industrial processes across Australia. It’s a white, crystalline powder with high bulk density. Works well in manufacturing, water treatment, and chemical processing.

Industries use Soda Ash Dense because it dissolves well and stays stable. The dense form is better for storage, transport, and automated feeding than the light version.

What Is Soda Ash Dense?

Soda Ash Dense is sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃). Made through the Solvay process. Has higher bulk density than soda ash light. Also called washing soda in some uses. Usually 99.2% pure minimum. Flows well for industrial use.

Industrial Applications

In glass manufacturing, Soda Ash Dense works as a flux agent. Lowers the melting point of silica. Makes container glass, flat glass, and fiberglass production more efficient. Water treatment facilities use it as a pH adjuster. Neutralizes acid conditions and softens hard water by removing calcium and magnesium.

Detergent makers use it as a builder. Makes cleaning work better and stops dirt from sticking back. Chemical industry uses it to make sodium bicarbonate, sodium silicates, and other sodium compounds. Knowing the difference between soda ash dense vs light helps you pick the right grade.
