PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

Calcium Hypochlorite (Ca(ClO)₂), commonly known as bleaching powder, is a versatile, high-efficiency inorganic compound widely recognized for its broad-spectrum disinfecting and bleaching properties. This white granular or powdered substance effectively releases chlorine to control bacteria, viruses, and algae in various concentrations, making it an essential solution for water treatment, sanitation, and industrial applications. When stored properly, it maintains its stability without significant decomposition. Key Characteristics
· High Efficacy: Strong disinfecting effects with available chlorine content ≥65%-70%, effectively eliminating bacteria, viruses, and algae in water systems at low dosages (typically 1-3 PPM for pools).
· Chemical Stability: Stable under dry, cool storage conditions, with minimal chlorine loss over time, facilitating safe transportation and long shelf life.
· User-Friendly: Easy to dissolve, safe handling with proper precautions (avoid contact with acids), low dosage requirements, and rapid action. This product is widely used in swimming pools and industrial circulating water systems for disinfection and algae control; in drinking water purification and wastewater treatment for pathogen elimination; in bleaching for textiles and paper industries; in sanitation for hospitals, hotels, and public places; and in agriculture for seed disinfection and soil treatment.

It provides excellent performance in preventing microbial growth and contamination, serving as a reliable solution across multiple sectors.
