Overview of Liquid Chlorine 7%
Liquid Chlorine 77 percent (sodium hypochlorite solution with a pH of 7 percent chlorine available) is a light green-yellow alkaline liquid disinfectant as well as bleaching agent that is commonly employed in dilute form for industry-wide sanitization and for the oxidation process.
Chemical Formula NaOCl (in an aqueous solution). Chlorine available: 7 percent. CAS Number: 7681-52-9 (for sodium hypochlorite). Specific properties: Very strong acid oxidizing agent. It is broken down by heat and light, then releases chlorine gas. Effective biocide
Applications of Liquid Chlorine 7%
Water Treatment and Disinfection
- Sanitizer used for primary cleaning of swimming pools, drinking water, cooling towers, and wastewater towers
- Oxidizes organics and controls algae, and kills pathogens
Industrial Bleaching and Cleaning
- Utilized in the process of bleaching textiles, papers/pulps, as well as the process of surface disinfection at food and beverage plants.
- Sanitizers in the brewery, dairy, and pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities
Other Uses
- As a laundry compound and also as a precursor for the reaction of chlorination.
- Compatible with surface treatments involving Dodecyltrimethoxysilane in antimicrobial coatings
Safety and Handling Guidelines
- Protective goggles or gloves, and wear appropriate clothes (corrosive to eyes and skin)
- Avoid contact with skin for prolonged periods, as well as the inhalation of gaseous vapours (irritant release of toxic Chlorine gas)
- Only use in an area that is well ventilated; beware of mixing with ammonia or acids.
- Keep in a sealed, cool, dark container, away from any incompatible items.
- Use MSDS guidelines and safety procedures (oxidizer and corrosion)
