Sodium hydroxide, also known as caustic soda or lye, is an inorganic chemical that is extremely caustic and corrosive. At room temperature, it is a white solid that is extremely soluble in water, causing an exothermic reaction. It is a strong base that is widely used in industry. It is made by electrolyzing salt brine or by reacting calcium hydroxide with sodium carbonate.

It has a wide range of industrial applications, including pulp and paper production, textiles, soap and detergent production, and a range of chemical production. It is a strong alkali that is utilised in a variety of applications, including the manufacturing of biodiesel, aluminium, and sodium salts. It is also used to clean food processing equipment and in water treatment to regulate pH levels and remove heavy metals from wastewater.

At normal temperature, sodium hydroxide is a white, odourless substance. It could also take the form of pellets or flakes. It has a melting point of 318°C (604°F) and a boiling temperature of 1,388°C (2,530°F). The density of sodium hydroxide as a solid is 2.13 g/cm3, while its density as a solution varies with concentration.

At room temperature, sodium hydroxide is very soluble in water, with a solubility of around 109 g/100 mL. As the temperature rises, so does the solubility. When in solution, it is a strong basic with a pH of 14. It is extremely reactive and can cause strong reactions with acids, oxidising agents, and some metals. It is also extremely corrosive and can cause severe burns when it comes into contact with the skin, eyes, or respiratory system.

It is an important chemical in the production of pulp and paper. Sodium hydroxide demand is being driven by rising demand for paper products such as packaging materials, tissue paper, and printing paper. It is a crucial element in the manufacture of many chemicals, including detergents, soaps, and textiles.

Sodium hydroxide demand is being driven by rising industrial and household demand for these chemicals. It is used to balance the pH of water as well as to remove heavy metals and other contaminants from wastewater. The water treatment industry's demand for sodium hydroxide is being driven by the growing concern about water contamination and the need for clean water.

It is used to make alumina, which is a vital component in the manufacturing of aluminium. Sodium hydroxide demand is being driven by rising aluminium demand for a variety of industrial uses such as aerospace, transportation, and construction. It is used in the food sector to clean and sanitise food processing equipment and to regulate pH levels in a variety of food products. Sodium hydroxide demand is being driven by rising demand for processed foods and growing concern about food safety.
