Sodium  hydroxide  is produced  by  the  electrolysis  of  an  aqueous  solution  of  sodium  chloride  (called brine).

The process is called the chlor-alkali process because of the products formed, i.e. ‘chlor’ for chlorine and ‘alkali’ for sodium hydroxide.

2NaCl(aq) + 2H2O(aq) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g) + Cl2(g)
