Chemical properties
Sodium hydroxide is corrosive to fibers, skin, glass, ceramics, etc. It releases heat when dissolved or diluted as a concentrated solution; it can also generate a lot of heat when it reacts with inorganic acids to generate corresponding salts; it reacts with metal aluminum and zinc, non-metal boron and silicon to release hydrogen; it reacts with halogens such as chlorine, bromine, and iodine to undergo disproportionation reactions. It can precipitate metal ions from aqueous solutions to form hydroxides; it can cause oils and fats to undergo saponification reactions to generate corresponding organic acid sodium salts and alcohols, which is the principle of removing oil stains from fabrics.
