    It's No Lye, This Caustic Soda is Fine Indeed

    It's sodium hydroxide, folks. Soap Grade is appropriate for just about anything except organic syntheses where trace contaminants can follow you a long way. I don't make a primary standard, saturated NaOH solution for precision analyses using this, either, but for the bulk of my needs it is more than sufficient.

    Lye order

    I ordered a kilogram of sodium hydroxide and it arrived in two days. The packaging was secure and the product of the stated quality.

    As long as this fine level of service is maintained, I will make all my future purchases of NaOH through Lab Alley.

    Soap Maker

    This lye is amazing. It always behaves well and leaves little to no residue. The finer grain dissolves wonderfully. I definitely recommend.
