Sodium Bicarbonate is a versatile and industrially essential chemical compound. Its value across sectors stems from its mild alkalinity, thermal decomposition behavior, and predictable reactivity. Industry-grade material is defined by high purity, consistent particle size distribution, and stable physical properties, which collectively ensure reliable performance, handling safety, and broad compatibility in formulated products.

SODIUM BICARBONATE

A white, odorless, crystalline powder exhibiting weak basicity and effervescent reactivity upon contact with acids. It is characterized by its high purity, water solubility, and endothermic decomposition under heat. These intrinsic properties—coupled with its non-toxic, safe-handling, and storage-stable nature—make it a highly consistent and adaptable material for integration into diverse industrial systems.

FAQ

What is the difference between sodium bicarbonate and sodium carbonate (soda ash)? Can they replace each other?

The main difference between the two lies in their alkaline strength and chemical stability: sodium bicarbonate has weaker alkalinity (pH about 8.3) and is easily decomposed when heated; Sodium carbonate has strong alkalinity (pH about 11.6) and higher stability. In most scenarios (such as food bloating and cleaning), it cannot be directly replaced and the dosage or process needs to be adjusted according to the specific purpose (for example, using sodium carbonate in food may cause a slightly astringent taste).

What are the storage conditions for sodium bicarbonate?

Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Keep containers tightly sealed to protect from moisture and prevent caking. Avoid contamination and store away from acids.

Always consult the SDS for detailed handling protocols.

What is the shelf life of your sodium bicarbonate?

When stored in its original, unopened packaging in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated environment, our sodium bicarbonate has a recommended shelf life of 2 years. It is hygroscopic and must be protected from moisture to prevent caking.

Are your products compliant with major international standards?

Absolutely. Our production facilities and products are certified to meet:

Food Grade: FCC, FDA regulations, EU food additive regulations, HALAL, KOSHER.

General Compliance: REACH, ISO 9001 (Quality Management), and ISO 22000/FSSC 22000 (Food Safety), where applicable.
