What is Sodium Hypochlorite?
Sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), commonly known as bleach or liquid chlorine, is a chemical compound typically produced as a water solution. It is formed by reacting chlorine gas with a sodium hydroxide solution.
Physical and Chemical Properties
Sodium hypochlorite is a pale yellow or greenish liquid with a strong chlorine-like odor. It dissolves well in water and is a powerful oxidizing agent that reacts with organic materials and reducing agents, releasing oxygen. This may cause corrosion to metals and other substances. It is unstable and decomposes over time, especially when exposed to heat or light.
Applications
Water and wastewater disinfection
Household cleaning and disinfectant products
Bleaching in textile and paper industries
Medical surface disinfection
Supply from Iran
