  2. Sodium hydroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_hydroxide

    Sodium hydroxide, also known as lye and caustic soda, [1] [2] is an inorganic compound with the formula NaOH. It is a white solid ionic compound consisting of sodium cations Na + and hydroxide anions OH −. Sodium hydroxide is a highly corrosive base and alkali that decomposes lipids and proteins at ambient temperatures and may cause severe ...

  4. Water-energy nexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water-energy_nexus

    Hybrid Sankey diagram of 2011 U.S. interconnected water and energy flows. The water-energy nexus is the relationship between the water used for energy production, [1] including both electricity and sources of fuel such as oil and natural gas, and the energy consumed to extract, purify, deliver, heat/cool, treat and dispose of water (and wastewater) sometimes referred to as the energy intensity ...

  5. Sodium hypochlorite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_hypochlorite

    A 1966 patent describes the production of solid stable dihydrate NaOCl·2H 2 O by reacting a chloride-free solution of hypochlorous acid HClO (such as prepared from chlorine monoxide ClO and water), with a concentrated solution of sodium hydroxide. In a typical preparation, 255 mL of a solution with 118 g/L HClO is slowly added with stirring to ...

  6. Polyacrylic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyacrylic_acid

    Polyacrylic acid is a weak anionic polyelectrolyte, whose degree of ionisation is dependent on solution pH. In its non-ionised form at low pHs, PAA may associate with various non-ionic polymers (such as polyethylene oxide, poly-N-vinyl pyrrolidone, polyacrylamide, and some cellulose ethers) and form hydrogen-bonded interpolymer complexes.

  7. Sodium dodecyl sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_dodecyl_sulfate

    Bottle of 20% sodium dodecyl sulfate in distilled water for use in the laboratory. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) in water at 25 °C is 8.2 mM, [1] and the aggregation number at this concentration is usually considered to be about 62. [3] The micelle ionization fraction (α) is around 0.3 (or 30%). [4]
