Lye Potassium hydroxide

A base is any material that produces hydroxide ions when it is dissolved in water. The words alkaline, basic, and caustic are often used synonymously. Common bases include sodium hydroxide (lye), potassium hydroxide (potash lye), and calcium hydroxide (slaked lime). The concepts of strong versus weak bases, and concentrated versus dilute bases are exactly analogous to those for acids. Strong bases such as sodium hydroxide dissociate completely while weak bases such as the amines dissociate only partially. As with acids, bases can be either inorganic or organic. Typical reactions of bases include neutralization of acids, reaction with metals, and reaction with salts ... [Pg.165]

Alkali Any substance that in solution gives a pH of greatei than 7 0. Lye (potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide), baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), and lime (calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide) are examples of alkalis. [Pg.199]

TRICLORURO de TITANIO (Spanish) (7705-07-9) see titanium trichloride. TRI-CLENE or ACETYLENE TRICHLORIDE (79-01-6) C2HCI3 Forms explosive mixture with air [explosion limits in air (vol %) 12.5 to 90 flash point >200°F/>93°C autoignition temp 770°F/410°C Fire Rating 1]. Violent reaction with strong caustics (lye, potassium hydroxide, sodiiun hydroxide, etc.). Impact sensitivity results from mixtures of this material with powdered metals of aliuniniun, barium, beryllium, magnesium, and titanium. Contact with caustics, epichlorohydrin, or epoxides produces spontaneously explosive dichloroacetylene. Forms an explosive... [Pg.1036]

CHLORYLEA (79-01-6) Violent reaction with strong caustics (e.g., lye, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, etc.). Caustics, epichlorohydrin, epoxides produce spontaneously... [Pg.316]
