Caustic soda

Flakes · pearls · 50 % lye

Sodium hydroxide in solid and liquid trade form, a base chemical used in almost every industry.

Flakes are formed on cooled rollers and give irregular scales. Pearls are prilled and flow more evenly. The difference lies in handling, the quality is the same. Both are 98 to 99 % pure. Lye from electrolysis comes at around 30 to 35 % and is evaporated to the usual trade concentration of 50 %. Transport distance and dosing equipment decide between solid and liquid.

Applications: Aluminium production · Soaps and detergents · Pulp and paper · Water treatment · Textile industry
Packaging: 25 kg bag · 1,000 kg big bag · IBC 1,000 L · ISO tank · Bulk

Soda ash

light · dense

Sodium carbonate for glass, detergents and chemicals, sold in two bulk densities.

Light and dense do not differ chemically; both are around 98 to 99 % pure. Dense has the higher bulk density and coarser grain, creates less dust and mixes better with sand in glass production. Light is finer and dissolves faster, which is why it is preferred in detergent production and chemicals.

Applications: Glass production · Detergents · Chemical industry · Water treatment
Packaging: 25 kg bag · 50 kg bag · 1,000 kg big bag · Bulk vessel
HS code: 2836.20

Sulphuric acid

technical 98 %

The most produced chemical in the world, used for fertilisers, metals and chemicals.

The technical trade concentration is usually 98 %. 96 % and various battery grades are also common. The largest single use is phosphate fertiliser production. Transport and storage need acid resistant equipment and handling in line with ADR or IMDG.

Applications: Phosphate fertiliser production · Metal pickling · Chemical synthesis · Battery manufacture

Hydrochloric acid

technical 30 to 33 %

Mineral acid for pickling, regeneration and well treatment.

Technical hydrochloric acid is usually traded at 30 to 33 %. It is used for pickling steel, for regenerating ion exchangers, in water treatment and in oilfield technology for acid treatment of carbonate formations. The product is classified as dangerous goods.

Applications: Steel pickling · Ion exchanger regeneration · Water treatment · Oilfield treatment

Hydrogen peroxide

35 % · 50 %

Oxidising and bleaching agent that decomposes only to water and oxygen.

The usual grades are 35 and 50 %, for special applications also 60 and 70 %. Compared with chlorine bleaches it decomposes without residue. On contamination or heat the product decomposes faster and faster, so storage vessels, venting and material compatibility need strict attention.

Applications: Pulp bleaching · Textile bleaching · Wastewater treatment · Disinfection

Calcium carbonate

Technical · food · pharma

Mineral filler with purities from 99 % in several quality grades.

Calcium carbonate is used as a filler and white pigment in paper, plastics, paints and construction chemicals, and as a mineral additive in feed and food. Trade grades differ less in purity than in particle size distribution, brightness and surface treatment, which decide suitability in the respective process.

Applications: Paper production · Plastics filler · Paints and coatings · Construction chemicals · Animal feed
Packaging: 25 kg bag · 1,000 kg big bag · Bulk
HS code: 2836.50

Titanium dioxide

Rutile · anatase

The most important white pigment in industry, in types dispersible in water or in oil.

Rutile is the denser modification, more resistant to weather, and dominates paints, plastics and exterior applications. Anatase is softer and yellows more easily, but has an advantage in certain paper and fibre applications. Selection is made by dispersibility and surface treatment. The binding specification comes from the manufacturer's data sheet.

Applications: Paints and coatings · Plastics · Paper · Printing inks
Packaging: 25 kg bag · 1,000 kg big bag
HS code: 3206.11
CAS number: 13463-67-7

Sodium sulphate

Anhydrous · decahydrate

Filler and process salt for detergents, glass and textile dyeing.

Anhydrous sodium sulphate serves as a filler in powder detergents, as a fining agent in glass melting and as a levelling agent when dyeing cotton. The decahydrate, historically Glauber's salt, plays a minor role in industrial trade. The binding specification is supplied by the manufacturer's data sheet.

Applications: Detergent production · Glass industry · Textile dyeing · Pulp
Packaging: 25 kg bag · 1,000 kg big bag · Bulk

Glycerine

USP 99.5 % · technical

Vegetable or synthetic glycerine for pharma, cosmetics and industry.

USP quality requires a purity of at least 99.5 % with heavy metals below 5 ppm and is therefore usable for pharma, cosmetics and food. Technical grades are lower and go into chemicals and industrial applications. Most trade glycerine today is a coproduct of biodiesel production. If vegetable origin or halal or kosher evidence is required, this has to be fixed in the contract.

Applications: Pharma and cosmetics · Food industry · Chemical synthesis · Animal feed
Packaging: 208 L drum · IBC 1,000 L · Flexitank · ISO tank
HS code: 2905.45

Solvents

Acetone · IPA · MEK

The three most used industrial solvents.

Acetone at technically at least 99.5 % is the fastest and cheapest solvent and goes into cleaning, paints and resins. Isopropanol is traded from technical grade up to 99.99 % and dominates electronics cleaning and disinfection. MEK dissolves more aggressively and more slowly than acetone and is used where acetone evaporates too quickly or sensitive substrates such as anodised aluminium are involved.

Applications: Industrial cleaning · Paint and adhesive industry · Electronics manufacturing · Chemical synthesis
Packaging: 208 L drum · IBC 1,000 L · Flexitank · ISO tank
HS code: 2914.11 / 2905.12 / 2914.12

Water treatment chemicals

Coagulants · flocculants · biocides

Programmes for municipal and industrial water treatment.

Treatment follows a fixed sequence. Coagulants such as polyaluminium chloride or aluminium sulphate destabilise the suspended matter, flocculant aids let it grow into flocs that settle, and pH correction and disinfection follow. Which product fits at which dosage depends on the raw water analysis, so each system is designed for its application and not taken from a catalogue.

Applications: Municipal waterworks · Industrial wastewater · Cooling circuits · Boiler feed water
Packaging: 25 kg bag · IBC 1,000 L · 208 L drum · Bulk
Supply: On a contract basis

Oilfield chemicals

Drilling fluid additives · demulsifiers · corrosion inhibitors

Process chemistry for drilling, production and pipeline operation.

Drilling fluid additives control density, viscosity and filtrate behaviour of the mud and keep the wellbore stable. Demulsifiers break the water and oil emulsion from production so that the crude reaches sales specification. Corrosion inhibitors protect risers and pipelines against CO₂ and H₂S corrosion. All three groups are designed for the specific field and not supplied from a standard list.

Applications: Drilling operations · Production and treatment · Pipeline operation · Oilfield service companies
Packaging: 208 L drum · IBC 1,000 L · Bulk
Supply: On a contract basis
