Description

HSN 28362010 covers dense disodium carbonate (dense soda ash), a high-bulk-density form of sodium carbonate used in glass manufacturing.

Export Considerations

Ships in bulk via bulk vessel or bulk bags for large glass-industry orders; non-hazardous but requires moisture-proof packaging/hold since it's hygroscopic and can cake if exposed to humidity.
