Product name Soda ash
Generic name Sodium carbonate
Chemical formula / Diagram Na2CO3
Product Overview Tosoh has produced soda ash since 1936 while continuously improving its process technology. In 1992, seeking to broaden its activities worldwide, Tosoh purchased equity interest in General Chemical Soda Ash Partners, one of North America’s leading soda ash producers. Starting from September 1996, the production of synthetic soda ash at the Nanyo Complex will be ceased, and simultaneously marketing and sales of natural soda ash produced by GCSAP will begin.
