Specifications
1, Sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydrogen carbonate.
2, CAS: 144-55-81
3, Chemical formula: NaHCO3
Sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydrogen carbonate is the chemical compound with the formula NaHCO3. Sodium bicarbonate is a white solid that is crystalline but often appears as a fine powder. It has a slightly salty, alkaline taste resembling that of washing soda (sodium carbonate). The natural mineral form is nahcolite. It is a component of the mineral natron and is found dissolved in many mineral springs.
Applications:
1, Cooking: Sodium bicarbonate, referred to as "baking soda" is primarily used in cooking, Sodium bicarbonate can be substituted for baking powder provided sufficient acid reagent is also added to the recipe. Sodium bicarbonate was sometimes used in cooking vegetables, to make them softer, although this has gone out of fashion, as most people now prefer firmer vegetables that contain more nutrients.
2, Neutralization of acids and bases: Many laboratories keep a bottle of sodium bicarbonate powder within easy reach, because sodium bicarbonate is amphoteric, reacting with acids and bases.
3, Medical uses: Sodium bicarbonate is used in an aqueous solution as an antacid taken orally to treat acid indigestion and heartburn.
Sodium bicarbonate has been known to be used in first aid, in treating scalding, to prevent blistering and scarring with instructions to cover the scalded area with a liberal layer of sodium bicarbonate and water paste and seek medical assistance
It is used as well for treatment of hyperkalemia.
Adverse reactions to the administration of sodium bicarbonate can include metabolic alkalosis, edema due to sodium overload, congestive heart failure, hyperosmolar syndrome, hypervolemic hypernatremia, and hypertension due to increased sodium.
Bicarbonate of soda can also be useful in removing splinters from the skin.
4, Personal hygiene: Toothpaste containing sodium bicarbonate has in several studies shown to have a better whitening and plaque removal effect than toothpastes without it.
Sodium bicarbonate is also used as an ingredient in some mouthwashes.
5, Baking soda in sports: Small amounts of sodium bicarbonate have been shown to be useful as a supplement for athletes in speed-based events.
6, As a cleaning agent: A paste from baking soda can be very effective when used in cleaning and scrubbing.
7, As a biopesticide.
8, Cattle feed supplement.
9, Miscellaneous: Sodium bicarbonate can be used to extinguish small grease or electrical fires by being thrown over the fire.
Sodium bicarbonate is used in a process for cleaning paint called sodablasting.
