DictionarySeealkalicorrosive alkali
corrosive alkaliA strongly basic metallic hydroxide, most commonly of sodium, ammonium, and potassium, as well as carbonates.

They have a tendency to gelatinize tissue, turning it a somewhat grayish color and forming a soapy, slippery surface, accompanied by pain and burning.
