DIYChemicals Sodium Hydroxide
Also commonly known and referred to as Caustic Soda, NaOH, and Lye, is a commodity chemical that you can order directly from DIYChemical’s online store. Regardless of what name you use when talking about Sodium Hydroxide, it is not to be confused with Potassium Hydroxide (which we also stock for you). High purity Sodium Hydroxide finds usage with soap-makers, metal etching, hobbyists, and small business users.
- Multiple resealable packaged sizes, ranging from 2lbs to 40lbs.
- Industrial Grade product.
- Used in Soapmaking, “DIY” hobbyist projects, and numerous small business applications.
- Satisfaction guaranteed, made in the USA; packaged in Texas!
With no additives or fillers, you can use Lye in almost every industry. Common usages include soap making (in both hot and cold processes), changing pH in formulations, drain cleaning, equipment cleaning (storage tanks, process equipment, etc…), and metal etching.
No matter your application, it is important to remember that you could do everything correctly in your formulation, but still have a bad finished product if you use low quality starting components. That is why no matter what usage you have planned, it is important to purchase pure, quality, raw materials. Choose this product today for all of your needs, and be sure to read all safety data on the labels and Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
Important Notice: This product is not intended for food, pharmaceutical, or personal care applications.

This was my second purchase of sodium hydroxide from DIY Chemicals. I own and operate Olive Blossom Soap Co and I make a lot of soap. Using high quality products is a top priority for myself and my customers. The lye is perfectly granulated with no clumps and has NO static whatsoever, which I appreciate, as jumpy lye is a pain to work with! It also came with a convenient scoop! Customer service is also top-notch and the price is on point, too. I’ll be a return customer!

Fast shipping! Items were sent in individual containers which is perfect when making soaps. Granulars dissolve quickly compared to the flakes I was using.

Shipping was extremely slow with excuses that didn’t make sense about bottle problems even though the label had been created and was “ready” for pick up for over a week. Hopefully the lye gets here it will be good.

Great price and packaging. Product came in 5 2lb containers instead of a 10lb tub. Better for handling. I will definitely buy again when I need to.

Fast shipping, great customer and excellent product.
I have a small business called Piccard Handcrafted Essentials LLC, of handmade skin care products.
My only regret is not finding this amazing company before.
I highly recommend their Sodium Hydroxide for artisan Soap bars and then I would try Potassium Hydroxide for liquid soap.
They also have other products that I use for lotions and perfume as well.
If you are a small business owners of skin care products, this is a great place to shop online.
I would rated them 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.

I purchased the sodium hydroxide to make soap. Have made two batches so far and am pleased with results. I am in my 70’s and did have a difficult time opening the plastic jars. I understand the need for the safety, so just commenting. I was able to finally open with a lot of prayer and some creative ingenuity . Good price for the 10 lbs.

I have not received it yet. It has been held up at FedEx due to an unreadable bar code. I called them and thought it got moving again, but now they are saying I should hopefully receive it within the next week. Something about high volume. I don’t know what else to do at this point. I needed it last week.
