Sodium Silicate Solution – 2.5L (Water Glass, LR Grade)

Sodium Silicate Solution (2.5 litres), also known as Water Glass, is a versatile laboratory reagent (LR grade) widely used in educational science settings. Supplied ready‑to‑use in liquid form, this solution is ideal for practical chemistry lessons, demonstrations, and teacher‑led experiments in school laboratories.

With a CAS Number of 1344‑09‑8, this sodium silicate solution is clearly labelled for safe identification and routine laboratory use. It is non‑flammable and does not carry a UN classification, making it straightforward to store and handle when following standard COSHH guidance.

The generous 2.5L container provides excellent value for schools and colleges, offering enough material for repeated lessons across multiple year groups. As with all laboratory chemicals, it should be used under appropriate supervision and stored securely when not in use.

Please note: This chemical is supplied exclusively to educational establishments and will only be dispatched to verified school or institutional addresses.

Due to courier and safety regulations, chemical products cannot be returned. This does not affect your statutory rights.
