  Method for separating sodium hydroxide and sodium methoxide solids

  1. Dissolved in water (sodium alcohol reacts vigorously with water to form alcohol and sodium hydroxide)

  2. Distillation (isolation of alcohol)

  3. Evaporation (separation of sodium hydroxide)

  4. Make the alcohol as dry as possible (repeated distillation)

  5. Add sodium to sodium alkoxide

  6. Evaporate the alcohol to obtain a solid of sodium alkate. (When steaming, avoid letting him come into contact with air. If it is allowed to come into contact with air or not wait for cooling and cooling, the sodium alkoxide state will not be precipitated. Ok, it will be white if it is done. If it is not done, it will be yellowish brown, but it will not have much impact. It is very good.)
