WHAT DOES SODIUM SILICATE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

sodium silicate

Sodium silicate

Sodium silicate is the common name for compounds with the formula Na2nO. A well known member of this series is sodium metasilicate, Na2SiO3. Also known as waterglass or liquid glass, these materials are available in aqueous solution and in solid form. The pure compositions are colourless or white, but commercial samples are often greenish or blue owing to the presence of iron-containing impurities. They are used in cements, passive fire protection, textile and lumber processing, refractories, and automobiles. Sodium carbonate and silicon dioxide react when molten to form sodium silicate and carbon dioxide: Na2CO3 + SiO2 → Na2SiO3 + CO2 Anhydrous sodium silicate contains a chain polymeric anion composed of corner shared tetrahedral, and not a discrete SiO32− ion. In addition to the anhydrous form, there are hydrates with the formula Na2SiO3·nH2O which contain the discrete, approximately tetrahedral anion SiO222− with water of hydration. For example, the commercially available sodium silicate pentahydrate Na2SiO3·5H2O is formulated as Na2SiO22·4H2O and the nonahydrate Na2SiO3·9H2O is formulated as Na2SiO22·8H2O.

Definition of sodium silicate in the English dictionary
