Sodium orthosilicate supplier Distributor Manufacturer in chennai Taminadu india
Sodium orthosilicate is the chemical compound Na4SiO4. It is one of the sodium silicates, specifically an orthosilicate, formally a salt of the unstable orthosilicic acid H4SiO4.
Sodium Orthosilicate is generally immediately available in most volumes. American Elements manufactures materials to many standard grades when applicable including Mil Spec (military grade), ACS, Reagent and Technical Grades; Food, Agricultural and Pharmaceutical Grades, Optical, Semiconductor, and Electronics Grades, and follows applicable USP, EP/BP, and ASTM testing standards. Most materials can be produced in high and ultra high purity forms (99%, 99.9%, 99.99%, 99.999%, and higher). Standard and custom packaging is available. Additional technical, research and safety (SDS) information is available. Please request a quote above to receive pricing information based on your specifications.
Uses
Sodium orthosilicate has been considered as an interfacial tension reducing additive in the waterflooding of oil fields for enhanced oil extraction. In laboratory settings, it was found to be more effective than sodium hydroxide for some types of oil.
Sodium orthosilicate has been found to stabilize ferrate films as an anticorrosion treatment of iron and steel surfaces.
Natural occurrence
Sodium orthosilicate has not been found in nature. However, the mineral chesnokovite, chemically the related salt disodium dihydrogen orthosilicate [Na+]2[SiO2(OH)2−2] · 8H2O, was recently identified in the Kola Peninsula.
