Industrial Grade Sodium Hydroxide Flakes / Caustic Soda Flakes CAS 1310-73-2

Buyer-facing sourcing candidate for industrial grade caustic soda flakes / sodium hydroxide. The listing claims CAS 1310-73-2, NaOH, white flakes or pearls, 99% purity, 20 ton MOQ, and 25 kg bag packing options. Buyers should verify CAS, HS code, COA values, grade, concentration, sodium carbonate content, chloride/iron limits, DG classification, export documents, and whether the offered material is sodium hydroxide rather than sodium carbonate due to inconsistencies in the source text.

Identity and grade

Typical specifications

  • CAS No.: 1310-73-2 to be confirmed on COA, SDS, label, and customs documents
  • Chemical name: Sodium hydroxide / caustic soda flakes
  • Formula: NaOH
  • EINECS: 215-185-5
  • Appearance: White flakes; source page also mentions flakes or pearls, requiring confirmation of supplied form
  • Grade: Industrial grade; source page also lists multiple grades that require clarification
  • Purity / assay: Source page claims 99%; request current batch COA with NaOH assay basis
  • Key impurity checks to request: sodium carbonate, sodium chloride, iron, insoluble matter, heavy metals if relevant to buyer application
  • Moisture / water content: Not clearly stated; request specification limit
  • HS code: Source page shows 28362000, which appears inconsistent for sodium hydroxide and should be verified before import clearance
  • MOQ: Source page indicates 20 tons
  • Origin stated: Shandong, China; supplier location listed as Hebei, China, requiring commercial confirmation
Who uses this page

Target buyers

  • Chemical distributors importing bulk inorganic alkalis
  • Industrial buyers requiring caustic soda flakes for manufacturing use
  • Textile, detergent, pulp and paper, water treatment, and general industrial chemical procurement teams
  • Importers needing container-load supply with COA and export document readiness
  • Buyers comparing China-origin sodium hydroxide flakes suppliers for CAS/spec verification
Before matching

Documents to check

  • CAS number, grade, assay, and impurity profile
  • SDS, COA, TDS, HS code, and transport classification
  • Destination-market import documents before supplier matching
Package and route

Packing notes

  • Source page states 25 kg/bag or customized packing per customer requirement
  • Source page also references standard carton + pallet; confirm actual export packing for caustic soda flakes
  • Request bag material, liner type, moisture barrier, palletization, net/gross weight, and container loading plan
  • Confirm whether packing is suitable for ocean export of corrosive alkali solids
  • Request product label draft showing product name, CAS, batch number, net weight, hazard pictograms, manufacturer/exporter details, and country of origin
  • Confirm container quantity for FCL shipment and whether mixed loading is permitted under carrier rules
Applications and sourcing options

Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.

Clear application, grade, package, and document notes help separate real sourcing demand from a vague price check.

Use context

Common applications

  • Industrial alkali raw material sourcing where buyer has qualified internal handling and use controls
  • pH adjustment or neutralization applications subject to buyer's site procedures and local regulations
  • Chemical manufacturing feedstock where impurity limits such as carbonate, chloride, and iron are important
  • Detergent, textile, paper, dye, petroleum, and general industrial sectors requiring bulk caustic soda flakes
  • Distributor stock replenishment for properly classified corrosive alkali products
How we compare

Sourcing options

  • Request a firm quotation for 20 MT FCL industrial grade 99% sodium hydroxide flakes in 25 kg bags
  • Request separate quotes for flakes versus pearls if both forms are available
  • Request FOB China port and CIF destination port pricing with DG freight included or separately itemized
  • Request pre-shipment inspection and third-party testing for CAS, assay, and impurity confirmation
  • Request document review before payment, including SDS, COA, label, HS code, and DG declaration
  • Request palletized export packing if warehouse handling and unloading conditions require it
Human review

Compliance notes

  • Sodium hydroxide is a corrosive alkali and should be treated as dangerous goods for transport classification checks
  • Verify UN number, proper shipping name, hazard class, packing group, marine pollutant status if applicable, and emergency contact information on SDS and shipping documents
  • Request English SDS compliant with destination market expectations before order confirmation
  • Do not rely on marketplace claims alone; match CAS 1310-73-2, NaOH assay, and DG classification across COA, SDS, invoice, packing list, label, and B/L
  • Source text contains a material inconsistency: product title says sodium hydroxide CAS 1310-73-2, while product table includes CAS 497-19-8 and HS code 28362000, commonly associated with sodium carbonate. This must be resolved before RFQ acceptance
  • Request supplier business license, export qualification, recent COA, SDS, certificate of origin, packing list, commercial invoice template, and DG transport documents where applicable
  • Confirm destination-country import requirements with buyer's customs broker; no regulatory approval or clearance outcome should be assumed
  • Confirm whether any end-use, customer, destination, or sanctions screening is required before shipment
