Sodium Bi Carbonate (NaHCO3) is a high purity white crystalline powder widely used in food processing, pharmaceuticals, water treatment, and industrial applications. It naturally occurs in mineral form and is also synthetically produced to meet industrial-grade requirements. Our Sodium Bicarbonate is carefully processed and packed using advanced packaging techniques to ensure safe storage, long shelf life, and contamination-free delivery.
Commonly known as baking soda or sodium hydrogen carbonate, this versatile compound is highly soluble in water and exhibits excellent buffering and neutralizing properties. When heated above 50°C, it releases carbon dioxide gas, making it an essential ingredient in baking powder and food products. It is also widely used as an antacid to neutralize stomach acidity and in fire extinguishers, detergents, and cleaning formulations.
In industrial processes, Sodium Bi Carbonate is used for pH control, flue gas treatment, chemical manufacturing, and effluent treatment plants (ETP/STP). It is produced through controlled processes such as the Solvay process, ensuring consistent quality and performance. Due to its high alkalinity, purity, and stability, it is widely preferred across multiple industries.
