Name: Soda water glass
Synonyms: water glass
Genre: Clean
Purity: R-134
Chemical formula: Na2O x nO2Si
Usage
Soda water glass has a number of applications, mainly acting as a binder:
is used for the production of adhesives and putties used in construction
silicone resins are produced from it
they are used as a binder for ceramic materials
for the production of molds in foundries
for making paints
for the production of welding electrodes
for the production of washing powders
for the production of refractories (eg impregnation of wood with a water glass solution)
as the base of chemical gardens
Water glasses inhibit corrosion, prevent deposits, are also useful in systems that have already been significantly corroded. They are characterized by poor reactivity and quite
high stability, unlimited solubility in water and non-flammability.
