Not everyone watched the Beverly Hillbillies I guess. Maybe y’all aren’t old enough.
Caustic Soda/Sodium Hydroxide is commonly referred to as Lye as in Lye Soap which Granny used to make by the cement pond in quite a few episodes of the Beverly Hillbillies. Is a base that is very good at breaking down fats/greases etc. So, it is caustic by definition even if only mildly so due to dilution. Anyway. Sheesh. I guess I am old or I watched too much TV as a kid…or both.
