Caustic Soda Flakes (NaOH) are white, deliquescent solid flakes that dissolve rapidly in water to produce strong alkaline solutions with significant exothermic heat. They are one of the most widely consumed industrial chemicals globally, serving as a critical raw material in dozens of manufacturing processes. Moon Bright Resources supplies premium-grade caustic soda flakes with 99% minimum purity, manufactured under ISO quality standards. Our product features low iron content (<10 ppm) and consistent flake size for accurate dosing and rapid dissolution. It is trusted by soap manufacturers, biodiesel producers, water treatment plants, and aluminum processors worldwide. Caustic Soda Flakes MSDS , caustic soda flakes price wholesale,

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the difference between caustic soda flakes, pearls, and liquid?
A1: Caustic soda flakes are thin, flat particles that dissolve moderately fast and are cost-effective for most industrial applications. Caustic soda pearls (or prills) are spherical, dust-free, and dissolve slightly faster but are more expensive. Liquid caustic soda (50% solution) is ready to use but requires specialized storage tanks and is less concentrated. Flakes offer the best balance of cost, handling convenience, and shelf stability for most manufacturers. NaOH Flakes price today
Q2: How should caustic soda flakes be handled safely?
A2: Caustic soda is highly corrosive and causes severe burns to skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. Always wear appropriate PPE including chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles or face shield, and protective clothing. Use in well-ventilated areas or under exhaust ventilation. Never add water to caustic soda — always add flakes slowly to cold water while stirring. In case of skin contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. We provide detailed Safety Data Sheets (SDS) with every shipment. Caustic Soda Flakes price per ton
Q3: Do you offer OEM / private label packaging?
A3: Yes, Moon Bright Resources provides full OEM services for caustic soda flakes. We can package under your brand name with custom-printed bags (25 kg, 50 kg, or FIBCs), custom flake size specifications, and moisture-resistant packaging for tropical climates. Minimum OEM order quantity is 20 metric tons. We also offer custom repackaging for distributors, private label with multilingual safety labels, and UV-stabilized bag options for long-term outdoor storage. china caustic soda flakes price today wholesale,
Q4: What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A4: MOQ is 25 kg (one bag) for sample orders, 500 kg (20 bags) for small commercial orders, and 20 metric tons for wholesale pricing. Bulk orders of 20 metric tons or more (full container or truckload) qualify for discounted rates. For OEM private label orders, MOQ is 20 metric tons. Full container loads (25 metric tons per 20ft container) receive maximum discount. Caustic Soda 99% price
Q5: How should caustic soda flakes be stored?
A5: Store in original tightly sealed bags or containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from moisture and humidity. Keep away from acids, aluminum, organic materials, and reactive metals (zinc, tin). Do not store on concrete floors without pallets. Ideal storage temperature is 15-30°C. Protect from direct sunlight. Shelf life is 12-24 months when stored properly — flakes may cake if exposed to humidity. Always reseal partially used bags immediately to prevent moisture absorption. 99% Caustic Soda Flakes
