Application

Sodium carbonate can be used:
  • A sintering aid with the ZnO (zinc oxide) for the preparation of BaCe0.5Zr0.3Y0.2O3−δ based composite electrolyte material by solid-state reaction.
  • A co-precipitating agent for the synthesis of stable iron oxide nanoparticles from a stoichiometric combination of Fe(II) and Fe(III) salts.
  • A catalyst for the etherification of glycerol to polyglycerols.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Buffer component, may be used for the removal of peripheral membrane proteins.

General description
