3. Property:
Sodium hydroxide has strong alkalinity and strong hygroscopicity. It is easily soluble in water and exothermic when dissolved. The aqueous solution is alkaline and has a slippery feel; it is extremely corrosive and corrosive to fibers, skin, glass, ceramics, etc. It reacts with metallic aluminum and zinc, non-metallic boron and silicon to release hydrogen; reacts with halogens such as chlorine, bromine, iodine, etc.; disproportionates; reacts with acids to neutralize salt and water.
4. Storage:
Sodium hydroxide should be stored in a cool, dry and well-ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature does not exceed 35℃, and the relative humidity does not exceed 80%. The packaging must be sealed and protected from moisture. It should be stored separately from easily (combustible) combustibles, acids, etc., and avoid mixed storage. The storage area should be equipped with suitable materials to contain the leakage
