Product Description
Calcium hypochlorite (Ca(OCl)2) is a potent chemical compound that is frequently used to disinfect and treat water. It is made up of ions called calcium (Ca2+) and hypochlorite (OCl-), which dissolve and release chlorine. Granular and tablet forms are the two primary forms of this chemical, which, when maintained correctly, has a typical shelf life of three to six months. Because of its high oxidation potential, it works well to filter industrial effluents, disinfect drinking water, and sanitise pools. It comes in different grades and is made by reacting calcium hydroxide with chlorine gas. Depending on how it is made, calcium hypochlorite can have an off-white or white look. It is utilised in the food processing, water treatment, and medical sectors. For safe transportation, packaging usually consists of bags or drums.
