Size: Typically available in 1-gallon to 55-gallon containers, with smaller consumer sizes in 16-32 oz bottles.
Grade: Industrial, commercial, and household grades, with concentrations ranging from 5% to 30% active alkaline components.
Viscosity: Low to medium viscosity (50-500 cP), depending on formulation, often water-like to slightly gel-like.
Buoyancy: Neutral buoyancy in water, as most formulations are denser than water but dissolve or disperse readily.
Material: Composed of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, or silicates, often combined with surfactants and chelating agents.
pH Level: Highly alkaline, typically between 11 and 14.
Solubility: Fully soluble in water, with some formulations containing suspended abrasives or thickeners.
Flash Point: Non-flammable in most cases, as water-based formulations dominate.
Packaging: Plastic (HDPE) or metal containers, depending on concentration and application.
Temperature Stability: Stable at room temperature, with optimal performance between 50°F and 140°F (10°C-60°C).
