Sodium Silicate is used to control the pH of the finished product. Sodium Silicate, Sodium Metasilicate and Potassium Silicate are also used to prevent the corrosion (rust) of metallic materials used in cosmetic packaging.
Best Answer: Silicon is used to make many electronic devices, such as transistors, integrated circuits, computer chips and solar cells because it is a good semiconductor. Silicon, when doped with boron, gallium, phosphorus, or arsenic is used for transistors, solar cells, and other electronic devices. Silicon is commonly used around high temperatures because of its high melting point. It is used to make concrete and bricks, as a lubricant and for silicone implants (plastic/reconstructive surgery). Silicon plastic (Silastic) is used for artificial skin grafts to protect healing skin. Silicones are products of silicon, made by hydrolyzing a silicon organic chloride. Silica (sand) is the main ingredient of glass, and is also found in the human skeleton.
