NaOH synthesis


I am going to synthesize a larger amount of NaOH in solution using Ca(OH)2 and Na2CO3.

How strong the solution can get if I use excess lime with sodium carbonate in excess too? (I would take even more than it can be dissolved)

Also I need to store it, can I use old bottle of hcl that is hdpe and it has plastic cap like every cola bottle has?

My NaOH micro pearls came in a HDPE bottle. It is hygroscopic, so if its pretty air tight you should be OK.
