SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE
Sodium Hypochlorite is used for a wide range of applications where its powerful disinfection and oxidation properties are utilized to deliver technical and commercial advantage. It is manufactured by passing gaseous chlorine through a well-cooled solution of dilute Caustic Soda.
TRANSPORTION
Transported in M.S. Hard Rubber-lined Road Tankers of 10-30 M.T. capacity In PVC/HDPE Carboys and drums
APPLICATIONS
- Bleaching (widely used in paper, carpet washing, and textile industry)
- Formulated disinfectants
- Potable and waste water treatment
- Swimming pool water treatment
- Process and cooling tower treatment
- Odour control
- Chemical intermediates in agriculture, pharmaceutical, printing and metal processing industries
MATERIAL HANDLING:
Sodium hypochlorite is considered a strong oxidizer. Products of the oxidation reactions are corrosive. Solutions (more than 40% weight) can burn skin and cause eye damage, particularly when used in concentrated forms. The containers should be kept tightly closed and in a cool ventilated area.
