2. Prices of chemical elements - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prices_of_chemical_elements

   As chlorine is manufactured together with sodium hydroxide in chloralkali process, relative demand for one product changes the price for the other. When demand for sodium hydroxide is relatively high, chlorine price can fall to arbitrarily low levels, even to zero. [30] 18: Ar: Argon: 0.0017837: 3.5 (9.695 × 10 16 kg) 0.931: 0.001 66: 2019 ...

   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 ...

4. Lye - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lye

   A lye refers to sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide. The word lye most accurately refers to sodium hydroxide (NaOH), [citation needed] but historically has been conflated to include other alkali materials, most notably potassium hydroxide (KOH). In order to distinguish between the two, sodium hydroxide may be referred to as soda lye while ...

   Salt/common salt – a mineral, sodium chloride, NaCl, formed by evaporating seawater (impure form). Salt of tartar – potassium carbonate; also called potash. Salt of hartshorn/sal volatile – ammonium carbonate formed by distilling bones and horns. Tin salt – hydrated stannous chloride; see also spiritus fumans, another chloride of tin.

6. Sodium - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium

   Sodium was first isolated by Humphry Davy in 1807 by the electrolysis of sodium hydroxide. Among many other useful sodium compounds, sodium hydroxide is used in soap manufacture, and sodium chloride (edible salt) is a de-icing agent and a nutrient for animals including humans. Sodium is an essential element for all

7. Chloralkali process - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloralkali_process

   The process has a high energy consumption, for example around 2,500 kWh (9,000 MJ) of electricity per tonne of sodium hydroxide produced. Because the process yields equivalent amounts of chlorine and sodium hydroxide (two moles of sodium hydroxide per mole of chlorine), it is necessary to find a use for these products in the same proportion ...
