General description

Sodium hydroxide, also known as lye and caustic soda, is a strong base used universally as a neutralization agent in the chemical industry, paper making, petroleum refining, cleaning compounds, and drain cleaners.

Application

Sodium hydroxide can be used as:
A reagent in the gold-catalyzed selective oxidation of glycerol to glyceric acid. A catalyst for the cross-dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols and hydrosilanes to synthesize silyl ethers.
A base in the Sonogashira-type coupling of aryl halides and alkynes to synthesize ynones.
For general uses, product is also available in powdered form(655104)

Features and Benefits

ChemBeads are chemical coated glass beads. ChemBeads offer improved flowability and chemical uniformity perfect for automated solid dispensing and high-throughput experimentation. The method of creating ChemBeads uses no other chemicals or surfactants allowing the user to accurately dispense sub-milligram amounts of chemical.
