Chlor-alkali products make everyday life safer, healthier and more convenient
The electrolysis of saltwater simultaneously produces chlorine and akali, enabling this class of practical and valuable chemicals.
OxyChem is a leading producer of chlor-alkali products
Chlor-alkali chemicals serve as critical feedstock for the manufacture of everything from water purification and fertilizers to detergents and pharmaceuticals.
产品详细信息
氯 is one of the most abundant naturally occurring chemical elements. Its unique reactive properties allow it to bond with other chemical elements to form substances that are used in approximately 50 percent of all commercial chemistry. 氯 is an important building block used to manufacture thousands of everyday products across many industries, 包括汽车, 建设, 国防, 电子产品, 食物, 医疗保健和金属生产. It is also essential to public health. 氯 plays a vital role in keeping the world’s water supplies safe by controlling harmful bacteria and viruses.
用于制造业, 氯必须先分离, 通过电解, from the other elements with which it is combined. In this process an electrical current passes through brine and splits apart the positive sodium and negative chloride ions to form molecular chlorine gas. The chlorine gas is dried, chilled and pressurized or converted to liquid for 存储 or shipping.
OxyChem produces sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution, 俗称苛性钠, through the electrolysis of sodium chloride (salt) brine in diaphragm or membrane cells. 氯 and hydrogen are co-produced. The caustic soda solution may be clear or slightly cloudy in appearance, depending on the cell process used. It readily absorbs carbon dioxide from the air. It is available commercially as 50% NaOH, but other concentrations can be provided.
Caustic soda has a wide variety of applications in many industries, 包括纸浆及纸张, 铝, 肥皂和洗涤剂, 纺织品, petrochemicals and chemical processing.
OxyChem is the largest North American manufacturer of potassium hydroxide (KOH), 俗称苛性钾. It is produced through the electrolysis of potassium chloride using membrane cell technology, along with co-products chlorine and hydrogen.
A strong alkali, caustic potash is available in both liquid and dry forms. It has applications in fertilizers, 电池, 肥皂和洗涤剂, specialty glasses and other industrial operations. It also serves as a chemical intermediate for dyes, pharmaceuticals and photographic chemicals.
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is used in petroleum wells, 矿石破碎, 食品加工, as a pickling and metal cleaning agent, for pH adjustment and in general cleaning.
Composed of a single proton and a single electron, hydrogen is the simplest and most abundant element in the universe. 氧化学产生氢气2) as a co-product of its chlorine and caustic soda production. It is available by pipeline to companies that specialize in marketing industrial gases or that burn hydrogen as a fuel.
