Physical and chemical properties: Sodium Hydroxide is a white solid; available in pellets, flakes, granules and as a 50% saturated solution. It is hygroscopicand readily absorbs water from the air, so it should be stored in an airtight container. It is very soluble in water with liberation of heat. It also dissolves in ethanol and methanol  though it exhibits lower solubility in these solvents than does potassium   Molten sodium hydroxide is also a strong base, but the high temperature required limits applications. It is insoluble in ether and other non-polar solvents. A sodium hydroxide solution will leave a yellow stain on fabric and paper.

Usage : It is used in many industries, mostly as a strong chemical base in the manufacture of pulp and paper , textiles , drinking water , soaps and detergents and as a drain cleaner. Worldwide production in 1998 was approximately 45 million tonnes.[c Sodium hydroxide is a common base in chemical laboratories.
