I usually get my sodium hydroxide from Belle Chemicals. It says it is at minimum 99% pure. Well I had one container kind of go bad a few months back( I think their was moisture in the bottle), so I orderd my lye from Essential Depot this time. I made my soap and it is curing( it seems okay so far), but I was reading the Essential Depot website and it says their Lye has a minimun strength of 96%. Is this good? I mean is there a difference? Is this pure enough?
