LabChem® Sodium Hydroxide 20% W/V

LabChem® SODIUM HYDROXIDE 20% W/V is an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide prepared to a nominal strength of 20% W/V. It is manufactured by diluting sodium hydroxide to a consistent, verified concentration, saving the time and hazard of dissolving the caustic solid on the bench. Ready-to-use dilutions of this type reduce variability compared to in-house preparation.

It is commonly used for pH adjustment, sample digestion, and general strong-base chemistry in laboratory procedures. Working with a pre-diluted base also reduces the handling risk associated with concentrated caustic solutions. This reagent should be handled, stored, and used according to established laboratory safety procedures and the manufacturer's instructions.
