		Soda ash, with its low melting point and reactivity, acts as a flux for other ingredients, primarily silica and other oxides, allowing them to be melted at reasonable temperatures and to have a low enough viscosity to be easily handled and formed.
		Soda Ash is used primarily as a builder or filler in formulations of soaps, detergents and other cleaning compounds.
		Soda Ash is a base and therefore finds application in the water treatment segment by adjusting the pH of water when it is in acidic condition.

	Soda ash, Solvay style
		Soda ash, a key chemical for producing glass and soap and bleaching fabrics and paper, was produced by two processes, each best known by the name of its inventor: French physician Nicolas Leblanc and Belgian entrepreneur Ernest Solvay.
		Caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) was being produced—together with chlorine—by electrolysis of salt brine.
		Soda ash extracted from them, beginning in the late 1940s, was appreciably cheaper than that made in a Solvay unit.

	USGS Minerals Information: Soda Ash
		Soda ash is the trade name for sodium carbonate, a chemical refined from the mineral trona or sodium-carbonate-bearing brines (both referred to as "natural soda ash") or manufactured from one of several chemical processes (referred to as "synthetic soda ash").
		In 1998, in terms of production, soda ash was the 11th largest inorganic chemical of all domestic inorganic and organic chemicals, excluding petrochemical feedstocks.
		Because soda ash is used in flat glass for automobile manufacture and building construction, which are important economic sectors of the domestic economy, monthly soda ash production data are incorporated into monthly economic indicators for industrial production by the Federal Reserve Board, which monitors the condition of the U.S. economy.

	FAQ: What is soda ash, and what's it used for in dyeing?
		Soda ash is the active ingredient in washing soda.
		The type of sodium carbonate used in washing soda is a decahydrate, so you need to use almost three times as much washing soda as you would anhydrous soda ash - assuming that you are able to find washing soda that is suitable for use in dyeing, which may be difficult in the US.
		Soda ash changes the pH of the fiber-reactive dye and cellulose fiber so that the dye reacts with the fiber, making a permanent connection that holds the dye to the fiber.
