Application

Range of Products:

Sodium Silicate liquid both Neutral & Alkaline
We manufacture large range of Sodium Silicate both in Neutral and Alkaline grade of the typical qualities.

We also manufacture Sodium Silicate as per the customer's requirements and specification.
Sodium Silicates Concentration Mole Ratio Baume
Alkaline Sil 40 - 54 % 2.1 to 2.6 45 - 57
Neutral Sil 27 - 39 % 3.0 to 3.5 30 - 41.5
 

Dosage

 
Sodium Silicate is a compound mixture of sodium oxide i.e. Na2o with silica sand i.e. Sio2 with water. Sodium silicate is also called water glass. There are two process to manufacture liquid Sodium Silicate. 

To manufacture a lower ratio of Sodium Silicate by Hydrothermal process.

Mixture at Na2Co3 (Soda Ash) with Sio2(Silica sand) in furnace fuses  of more then 1100oC gives sodium silicate glass in lumps form which is  easily dissolved in hot water.We manufacture large range of sodium silicates, as per the customer's specific requirements.

TESTING PROCEDURE :::
ANLYSIS PROCEDEURE OF SODIUM SILICATE : Take 5gm of sodium dilute it to 250ml in SMF with dist. Water , take 50 ml of the diluted solution add 2-4 drops of  methyl red indicator.  Then titrate it against IN {approx.}  HCL  Light Pink is the end point. Take this reading as “A” ml. To this solution add 5 gm of sodium fluoride dissolve properly add  6-7 drops of methyl red indicator titrate against IN HCL  appearance of slight pink colour is the end point . Take this reading as “B” ml 

 

CALCULATION For Na2O
 

“A”ml  x 3.1 x normality of HCl   = C%

DETERMINATION OF IRON (as per Fe)

  • Botanic Potassium Thiocynate ;- dissolve 1.0gm of potassium thiocynate in10ml of water. Add sufficient n-butano to makeup to 100ml. Shake vigorously until the solution is clear.
  • Dilute H2SO4 :- approx.10% 
  • Standard Iron solution : weight 0.702gm of Ferrus Ammonium sulfate. Dissolve in 10ml dilute H2SO4 then make up 1000ml with water. Transfer 10 ml of this solution in 100ml M.Flask and make up 100ml with water. 1ml of this solution is equivalent to 0.01mg of iron 

 

PRCEDURE :

  • Sample Reading: take about 5gm of the sample accurately weighted. Dissolve it in distilled water and make the solution exactly 100ml. Take 10 ml of this solution add 1ml concentrated Nitric acid. Boil the solution and cool. Then transfer it into a nessler cylinder and add 30mg of Ammonium Persulfate and 15 ml of Botanic Potassium Thiocynate solution. Shake for 30 sec and allow the liquid to separate.
  • Blank reading : take 10 ml distilled water. Add 1ml concentrated Nitric acid boil the solution and cool. Then transfer it into a nesseler cylinder and add 30 mg of Ammonium Persulfate and 15 ml of Botanic Potassium Thiocynate solution . Shake for 30 sec. And allow the liquid to separate. Then add Standard Iron Solution until the colour of Butanol Layers in Both Cylinder (Sample & Blank) 
    CALCULATION :

Iron as Fe (%w)  =  0.001 V

                                     W

Where, 

V= Volume in ml of Standard Iron Solution to add in Blank Reading

W= Weight in gm of sample
