Industrial grade sodium silicate, also known as water glass, is a versatile chemical compound derived from silica sand and sodium carbonate through a high-temperature fusion process. It is widely used across industries for its adhesive, binding, and protective properties.

In its liquid form, industrial grade sodium silicate is a clear, viscous solution that can be mixed with water to create adhesives and binders for various applications. It finds use in manufacturing processes such as paper production, textiles, construction, and foundry casting. It acts as a binder, stabilizer, and flame retardant in these processes, contributing to the integrity and efficiency of the end products.
