Borax Substitute & TriSodium Phosphate Substitute
Sodium sesquicarbonate has a crystalline form which is classified as non-irritating and therefore suitable for use in many consumer products.
It offers an intermediate pH / alkalinity that lies between soda ash and sodium bicarbonate - making it an effective substitute for borax and trisodium phosphate (TSP).
It is mainly used in laundry as a water softening powder and laundry booster but also has a wide application as a limescale prevention powder, conservation of copper and copper alloys and as a scouring agent.
It is often used in bath salts and swimming pools as an alkalinity source for water treatment.
When mixed with vinegar / acetic acid or citric acid it makes the product fizz making it a much safer, effective and eco friendly drain opener and sink unblocker.
