Description

Soda ash is a chemical compound that can be used to remove stubborn stains from laundry and is an essential component in most laundry detergent for powder, liquid, or single pod formulas. It is often used in commercial detergent mixtures as well to treat hard water.

Properties

The sodium carbonate “softens” water helping other cleaning ingredients lift soil from the fabrics and suspend the soil in the wash water.
The washing soda binds to the minerals which make water hard and allows the detergent to be absorbed into fibers properly to clean clothes.
