What is lye water made of? Is lye safe? A food enhancer made from a mix of alkaline liquid and a potassium carbonate solution or water and sodium hydroxide. This ingredient has many names such as ‘lime water’ or ‘caustic soda’ a strongly alkaline dominated compound made milder for food grade and stronger for non-food grade such as cleaners or soaps. Both to preserve or soften the meat, vegetable, dish, or drainage. What does lye taste like? It tastes a tad acidic and more bitter, most use it for the texture it gives rather than taste, a little goes a long way for this ‘secret’ ingredient.

[Morningstar88]

Where to buy lye? You can find the food grade version in your local grocery stores typically in the baking section, in specialty cooking or baking stores, or online. Do check if it is food grade lye to be sure. Popularly used in many cured dishes like olives, pickled vegetables, and pretzels, to other rice based traditional dishes in Asian cuisine, to the ever loved noodles especially cup and instant noodles that many eat on the daily. (Check out Yummy Kitchen recipes down below!)

Lye water benefits Adds a slight yellowish tint to the dish or preserved items like noodles. It’s great as a preservative to foods, keeping its natural color and crunch. It neutralizes and gives the dish a tad of an alkaline taste, a stubble sour and bitter taste. Gives a smoother texture and helps meld all the flavors of the dish all together. Is it safe to use lye water on food? Yes, these are great to add in dishes in VERY SMALL AMOUNTS. Make sure NOT TO TASTE it directly, it can be tasted when diluted in a lot of water but it is suggested NOT to. These are typically added in small amounts for a whole batch of dishes, but do note the ratio to make sure that this added ingredient is just enough, but not too much. There are also non food related Lye water uses such as using lye water for soap, as lye drain cleaner for the kitchen and bathroom, or other drainages.

BAMBOO #CLEANBAMBOO

To treat, clean, and cure slightly dirty and moldy bamboo, follow these steps:

1. Remove the visible mold with a combination of warm water and a mild detergent. Use a soft-bristled brush to scrub the mold spots and then rinse the bamboo thoroughly with warm water.
2. Mix a solution of one part bleach to nine parts water, and use a soft cloth or brush to apply the solution to the mold spots. Let the solution sit on the bamboo for about 15 minutes and then rinse with warm water.
3. Dry the bamboo thoroughly in the sun to help further reduce any remaining mold spores.

[Morningstar88]

Soaking bamboo in a bleach solution is not recommended as it can damage the material and make it brittle or weak. Instead, use a combination of warm water and a mild detergent and apply it directly to the moldy spots, followed by rinsing with warm water. If necessary, you can use a soft brush or cloth to gently scrub away any stubborn patches of mold. After cleaning, make sure to dry the bamboo thoroughly in the sun to prevent any further mold growth.

[Morningstar88]

The optimum temperature to cure and dry bamboo is around 70-80°F (21-27°C). This temperature helps evaporate any excess moisture while preventing the bamboo from warping or splitting. However, the curing process can also be done at slightly higher temperatures, as long as the bamboo is well ventilated and not exposed to direct sunlight. The key is to allow the moisture to gradually leave the bamboo, without overheating it.

[Morningstar88]

Some rules of thumb to gauge the optimum temperature to dry bamboo by eye or feel are:

1. Touch test: Gently touch the bamboo with your fingers. If the material feels dry and warm, the temperature is likely suitable for drying.
2. Humidity test: Check the humidity level in the environment. Ideally, you want a humidity level around 50-60% for drying bamboo.
3. Visual check: Look at the color and texture of the bamboo. Dry bamboo should have a uniform color and feel slightly softer than fresh bamboo.

[Morningstar88]

Yes, it is possible to carbonize bamboo. Carbonization is a process that turns bamboo into charcoal. To carbonize bamboo, you need to cut the bamboo into small pieces and place them inside a furnace or kiln. Heat the furnace to a high temperature (around 600-700°C) and allow the bamboo to burn for several hours. This will convert the bamboo into charcoal.

[Morningstar88]

Achieving a light carbon coating on bamboo without splitting it requires precise temperature control. A carbonization process is used for this purpose, and the ideal temperature range is around 450-850°C for a few hours. However, it's crucial to keep the temperature as consistent as possible, as any fluctuations can cause the bamboo to split or burst. Additionally, pre-soaking the bamboo for a few hours before the carbonization process can help reduce the risk of cracking.

[Morningstar88]

The ideal liquid to soak #bamboo prior to #carbonization is a mixture of water and calcium #hydroxide (also known as slaked lime) in a 50/50 ratio. This mixture helps to remove any excess moisture from the bamboo, making it easier to carbonize and less likely to split during the process. Additionally, the alkaline nature of the #calcium hydroxide helps to break down the bamboo's lignin, a natural compound in the bamboo that can slow down the carbonization process.

In the ancient world, several hydroxides were used, including:

1. Calcium hydroxide (slaked lime), obtained by treating limestone with water. This hydroxide was commonly used in building and construction, as well as for neutralizing acids.
2. Potassium hydroxide (caustic potash), obtained by treating wood ashes with water. It was used in the making of soap and in various industrial processes.
3. Sodium hydroxide (lye), obtained by treating ashes and water. It was used for various purposes, including textile processing and in the production of soaps and dyes.

A common use of sodium hydroxide is in the production of parts washer detergents. Parts washer detergents based on sodium hydroxide are some of the most aggressive parts washer cleaning chemicals. The sodium hydroxide-based detergents include surfactants, rust inhibitors and defoamers. A parts washer heats water and the detergent in a closed cabinet and then sprays the heated sodium hydroxide and hot water at pressure against dirty parts for degreasing applications. Sodium hydroxide used in this manner replaced many solvent-based systems in the early 1990s

Sodium hydroxide is used in the home as a type of drain openers to unblock clogged drains, usually in the form of a dry crystal or as a thick liquid gel. The alkali dissolves greases to produce water soluble products. It also hydrolyzes proteins, such as those found in hair, which may block water pipes.

In today's video i have shown you how you can easily make sodium hydroxide from table salt. This process is very simple but also very dangerous. Sodium hydroxide is very alkaline and may cause itching and burns if comes in contact with the skin. Chlorine is very dangerous to breath. It can even cause chlorine poisoning.

I advice you to do this safely in very well ventilated place (outside) so the gases formed can escape.

If you have any questions and queries just let me know in the comments. Have a great day!!

RIGHT GREEN (POSITIVE) SIDE IS CHLORINE. LEFT CLEAR (NEGATIVE) SIDE IS SODIUM HYDROXIDE.

What happens when you mix baking soda with hydrogen peroxide?

Contents [show]

Introduction When it comes to natural cleaning and disinfecting solutions, one popular combination is baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. Both of these ingredients are commonly found in many households and are known for their versatile properties. When mixed together, they create a powerful solution that can be used for various purposes, from cleaning kitchen surfaces to whitening teeth. In this article, we will explore what happens when you mix baking soda with hydrogen peroxide and the different ways you can use this mixture in your daily life.

[Morningstar88]

Chemical Reaction When baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) is combined with hydrogen peroxide (H202), a chemical reaction occurs, resulting in the formation of water (H20) and oxygen (O2) as byproducts. This reaction is also known for its foaming and bubbling properties, which can be useful for cleaning and disinfecting purposes. The oxygen released during the reaction also acts as a natural bleaching agent, making this mixture an effective stain remover and whitening agent.

[Morningstar88]

Now, I know all of you are savvy enough to know that baking soda + skin = terrible but I wanted to make sure everyone knew that adding hydrogen peroxide to baking soda does NOT neutralize it (my friend did not know that). They react to create water, carbon dioxide, and sodium hydroxide. While an entire bath containing 1/2 cup of baking soda and a 1/2 bottle of 3% H3PO4 won't cause your skin to fall off it absolutely increases the basicness of the water.

ELI5: In DIY cleaning mixtures/solutions, why do people mix Hydrogen Peroxide with Baking Soda? Don’t they cancel each other out in terms of pH level?

Chemistry Hydrogen Peroxide 35% has a pH level of 3.5 and Baking Soda is 8-9 on the scale. Don’t they neutralise or reduce the potency of one another when mixed?

[Morningstar88]

Because the main benefit of hydrogen peroxide is not that it's an acid, it's that it's an oxidizer. These are separate properties. I think the idea of these cleaning tips is that you get a product that is still basic and abbrative like sodium bicarbonate, but is also oxidative from the hydrogen peroxide.

[Morningstar88]

Combining those two creates an oxygen bleach, the pH isn't what does the cleaning.

pH is just a measure of how many hydrogen ions there are. They don't really do much in terms of cleaning.

Adding hydrogen peroxide and baking soda creates ions that bleach and degrease.

[Morningstar88]

This is the case with vinegar and baking soda, they neutralize each other. Peroxide and baking soda have other properties that enhance each other’s cleaning potential. Oxidation and being abrasive, respectively.

[Morningstar88]

Hydrogen Peroxide and Baking Soda Yields? probably a simple question but google isn't helping.

I learned ages ago that it removes soot and other burnt-on material, so I think it makes lye. but I don't know why it would do that and not a dozen other things.

Refreshing your dry-clean-only clothes at home can help extend the time between professional dry cleanings and keep your garments looking and smelling their best, says Sokolowski. You can do so using a few different methods.

Steam cleaning: Use a handheld steamer to gently remove wrinkles from your clothes. "If using a steamer, I always place a clean white tennis sock (designated for this purpose only) over the end of the steamer so that the clothing does not get water spots," says Melissa Poepping, the founder of The Chemical Free Home. Brushing: A soft-bristle brush or clothing brush can remove surface dust, lint, and debris. Simply brush the fabric toward the weave to avoid damaging delicate fibers. Fresh air: Hanging your clothes outside on a sunny day is a great way to freshen your clothes and remove odors. Avoid putting garments in direct sunlight, which may fade fabrics. Spot cleaning: Use a soft cloth to dab stains with natural detergent, then blot with a clean, dry cloth. "Always test the detergent on an inconspicuous area first," says Sokolowski.

In the reaction of sodium bicarbonate with 40–60% hydrogen peroxide at −10°, preparations containing about 50% by weight sodium peroxobicarbonate NaHCO4·H2O in a mixture with unreacted bicarbonate ] were obtained.

2. The formation of an additive compound of hydrogen peroxide with a bicarbonate with the composition Na2CO3 · 1.5 H2O2in the temperature region 0–20° is a consequence of a secondary process of intramolecular conversion of the peroxobicarbonate monohydrate NaHCO4 · H2O, accompanied by liberation of carbon dioxide.

3. Sodium carbonate peroxyhydrate Na2CO3 · 1.5 H2O2 was isolated in pure form, and its physicochemical properties were studied: density, indices of refraction, molecular refraction, refraction of the hydrogen peroxide of crystallization, interplane distances, and limit of thermal stability.

[Morningstar88]

When hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and bicarbonate of soda (NaHCO3) are combined in a basic solution, they undergo a chemical reaction to produce sodium hydroxide (NaOH), also known as caustic soda, and water (H2O). The reaction is as follows: H2O2 + NaHCO3 → NaOH + H2O + CO2

[Morningstar88]

In order to cause a Maillard reaction during baking for the characteristic browning effect, a lye roll needs to be coated with a high pH (alkaline) solution. The higher the pH, the stronger the reaction. Lye (sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or potassium hydroxide (KOH)) is a highly alkaline agent most commonly used for the purpose. However, lye is not the only way to produce the needed result: a baking soda or washing soda solution, which is easier to handle and safer to use, will provide a similar product but will not provide as strong a reaction, so the effect will be less pronounced. Lye is the strongest agent, followed by washing soda, and then baking soda.
