About Sodium Hydroxide Beads FCC/Food Grade
Sodium Hydroxide Beads FCC/Food Grade is approved as a food additive (E 524) for use as an acidity regulator in jams, jellies, marmalades, and other similar fruit and vegetable spreads, processed cereal-based foods and baby foods. Sodium Hydroxide is also approved for use in food additives, food enzymes, food flavorings and nutrients. As a Food Grade chemical, it is suitable for use in the baking industry, in particular when making bagels and pretzels where it helps to create that distinctive glossy brown finish to baked goods.
As a general cleaning agent, it can be used in the home as an oven and drain cleaner. As a general laboratory chemical, it can be used to adjust pH levels upward and, as a reagent in the manufacture of many other substances.
