SODIUM METASILICATE

CAS NO: 6834-92-0
EC NO: 229-912-9

Sodium metasilicate is the chemical substance with formula Na2SiO3, which is the main component of commercial sodium silicate solutions. 
Sodium Metasilicate is an ionic compound consisting of sodium cations Na+  and the polymeric metasilicate anions [–SiO2−3–]n. 
Sodium Metasilicate is a colorless crystalline hygroscopic and deliquescent solid, soluble in water (giving an alkaline solution) but not in alcohols.

Preparation and properties
The anhydrous compound can be prepared by fusing silicon dioxide SiO2 (silica, quartz) with sodium oxide Na2O in 1:1 molar ratio.

The compound crystallizes from solution as various hydrates, such as

pentahydrate Na2SiO3·5H2O (CAS 10213-79-3, EC 229-912-9, PubChem 57652358) 
nonahydrate Na2SiO3·9H2O (CAS 13517-24-3, EC 229-912-9, PubChem 57654617)


Structure
In the anhydrous solid, the metasilicate anion is actually polymeric, consisting of corner-shared {SiO4} tetrahedra, and not a discrete SiO32− ion.

In addition to the anhydrous form, there are hydrates with the formula Na2SiO3·nH2O (where n = 5, 6, 8, 9), which contain the discrete, approximately tetrahedral anion SiO2(OH)22− with water of hydration. 
For example, the commercially available sodium silicate pentahydrate Na2SiO3·5H2O is formulated as Na2SiO2(OH)2·4H2O, and the nonahydrate Na2SiO3·9H2O is formulated as Na2SiO2(OH)2·8H2O.
The pentahydrate and nonahydrate forms have their own CAS Numbers, 10213-79-3 and 13517-24-3 respectively.

What Is Sodium metasilicate?
Sodium metasilicate is an inorganic salt that typically appears as a white powdered or flaked solid.

What Does Sodium metasilicate Do in Our products?
Sodium metasilicate is a versatile ingredient that can be used as an adhesive, corrosion inhibitor, and sealant, among other things. 
Sodium Metasilicate is often used in hair color and as a corrosion inhibitor in cosmetics; Sodium Metasilicate also is used in shaving, bath, and oral hygiene products.
 We use Sodium Metasilicate as a detergent booster.
Sodium Metasilicate is almost insoluble in cold water.


Sodium metasilicate helps remove organic matter during washing.

Studies show that the ingredient is a skin irritant but safe for use when formulated to avoid irritation.

How Sodium metasilicate Is Made
Commercially, manufacturing sodium metasilicate starts with fusing silica sand with sodium carbonate, also known as soda ash.

Sodium metasilicate is created by fusing sodium carbonate with silica sand at about 1400 degrees celsius. 
Three quick facts for your scientific enjoyment:

If you heat baking soda (a.k.a. sodium bicarbonate) in a 400°F oven for about an hour, it releases carbon dioxide and water and turns into sodium carbonate.
Silica sand is quartz that’s been broken down into tiny granules through years and years and years of wind and water erosion. 
People purify this sand for commercial use to make things like glass.
How hot does Sodium Metasilicate need to be to fuse these two elements? Extremely. 
To give you a sense of how hot 1400 degrees celsius is — lava, by comparison, is typically 700 to 1200 degrees celsius.

What Sodium Metasilicate does:
Sodium metasilicate softens water and enhances cleaning performance and efficiency (5,6).

Uses of Sodium Metasilicate

Sodium metasilicate, Na₂SiO₃, can be synthesized with various degrees of hydration. 
This very alkaline substance is formed by combining and melting sodium carbonate with silicon dioxide,

Na₂CO₃ + SiO₂ ' Na₂SiO₃ + CO₂'

Sodium metasilicate has hundreds of uses, many of them related to its sealant properties. 
Although stable in alkaline and neutral environments, it reacts with acids to produce silica gel.

Cements and Binders
With the loss of a little water, sodium metasilicate becomes an excellent cement or binding agent, especially for higher-temperature applications, or applications involving exposure to water or acids.

Pulp and Paper
One principal use of sodium metasilicate is in the pulp and paper industry. 
Sodium Metasilicate is used in sizing and coating paper. 
Sodium Metasilicate is also used, coupled with hydrogen peroxide, in the cellulose bleaching process, in which it acts as a buffer and stabilizing agent.

Soaps and Detergents
Due to a combination of excellent properties, including good emulsifying and suspension properties, along with reserve alkalinity, sodium metasilicate is finding uses in soaps and detergents, including those for automatic dish-washing use.

Automotive Uses
Elevated temperature is the key to sodium metasilicate's usefulness in automotive applications.

The U.S. government CARS program utilizes sodium metasilicate to destroy clunker automobiles. 
A concentrated solution is used to replace all of a car's motor oil. 
The car is started, and in just minutes, the heat has become sufficient to decompose the chemical, which causes the engine to seize up irreparably. 
The temperature required is in the 210-degree Fahrenheit and above range.

The same sodium silicate can be used to repair engines, as well. 
Head gasket leaks can be repaired by putting some sodium metasilicate in the coolant water. 
The water circulates, and some passes through the hole in the gasket. 
The gasket's elevated temperature changes the sodium metasilicate at the metal's surface, producing a film that seals the leak.

Sodium metasilicate is also used to make minor repairs to mufflers.

Egg Preservative
Historically, eggs have been preserved by immersion in a sodium silicate solution. 
This solution seals eggs, thus preserving them from bacteria, which leads to spoilage. 
The coating preserves eggs for a number of months.

Magic Gardens
During the twentieth century, chemical "gardens" containing various transition metal ions and sodium metasilicate were kept in homes for entertainment and decorative purposes. 
The metasilicate formed colorful "stalagmites" by reacting with and precipitating the metal ions. 
The gardens have been likened to moonscapes.

Definition of sodium metasilicate
: a toxic corrosive crystalline salt Na2SiO3 used especially as a detergent or as a substitute for phosphates in detergent formulations

Sodium metasilicate (Na2SiO3) is a versatile ingredient in areas such as detergents, fireproofing and adhesives. 
This inorganic chemical is available in different grades depending on the manufacturer’s needs.

For example, sodium metasilicate 9 MOL is common as a component of wet and dry mixes in shotcrete applications. 
Shotcrete involves shooting a dry mix of cement through one hose, while another adds water to create a wet mixture. 
This technique is used for construction on structures such as buildings, tunnels and swimming pools. 
One key benefit of shotcrete is the strength of the resulting structure, exhibiting ten percent more resistance than standard concrete structures.

At 176℉, sodium metasilicate 9 MOL begins releasing a significant amount of water, which is needed for proper installation. 
Sodium Metasilicate also has low dust content that leads to a more controlled worksite. 
Other grades of sodium metasilicate (e.g. anhydrous, pentahydrate) have been proven to improve material strength even under low temperature conditions. 
Alternatively, Sodium Metasilicate can also be used to repair and reinforce furnace linings for high temperature uses. 
This method is even able to work on irregular surfaces and overhead areas due to the high rate at which material is shot. 
In wet-mix shotcrete, the compound’s silicon dioxide (SiO2) reacts quickly, resulting in a shorter setting and hardening time.

In addition to shotcrete, sodium metasilicates are also used in sealants.
Their properties provide durability and strength to structures such as walls, bridges and slabs. 
Although sodium metasilicate dissolves easily in mixes, once Sodium Metasilicate hardens Sodium Metasilicate helps protect against aqueous solutions. 
In slurries, sodium metasilicate reduces the mobility of water.

While shotcrete is a popular application for sodium metasilicate, Sodium Metasilicate has many other industrial and construction applications. 
Sodium Metasilicate is used in oil well cements to prevent separation of solids from the high water-containing cement matrix. 
In some cases, sodium metasilicate can act as an extender, allowing a higher ratio of water to cement and thus reducing material costs. 
Sodium Metasilicate is also ideal for fire-resistant settings such as refractories.

Sodium Metasilicate is a highly alkaline compound that is used in a variety of industries. 
Sodium Metasilicate dissolves easily, even in cold water and its granules are characterized by high bulk density with a low dust content.
