Sodium metasilicate vs sodium hydroxide

[pinpointdan]

Does anyone know much about these. Do they pretty much do the same thing? Im trying to research and getting a little lost.

Sodium hydroxide is 'stronger'. They serve the same purpose as an ingredient and can make a roughly equal soap. But the metasilicate, also known as liquid glass, did make 'glass' pieces when I was forced to use it in a strong mix when out of SH. It seems like the MS is not as 'dangerous'. Metasilicate is no sodium hydroxide though in my opinion.
