Sodium Hypochlorite NaClO 7681-52-9 Oxidizing agent, bleach, oxidizing agent and water purification
Basic information
Nature
1. Properties Solid sodium hypochlorite is white powder.
2. General industrial products are colorless or light yellow liquids. Has a pungent odor.
3. Solubility easily soluble in water to produce caustic soda and hypochlorous acid
Use
1. It is an oxidizing bactericide, and its bactericidal mechanism is similar to liquid chlorine.
3. Sodium hypochlorite solution is generally used in industrial circulating water. At the same time, sodium hypochlorite increased the pH value of circulating water. Therefore, in the circulating water system with liquid chlorine as a fungicide, the residual chlorine is difficult to reach the target, in the case of serious pH decline, the impact of a larger dose of sodium hypochlorite can ensure the residual chlorine and pH indicators.
4. Strong oxidizing agent, used as bleach, oxidizing agent and water purification agent for paper making, textile, light industry, etc., with bleaching, sterilization, disinfection
Secure
It is highly oxidizing and corrosive. Skin contact can cause burns. Entry into the body can cause mucosal corrosion, perforation of the esophagus or trachea, and edema of the throat. Inhalation into the lungs can cause severe bronchial burns and edema in the lungs. Workers in contact with and use should take good precautions to prevent ammonium hypochlorite solution from entering the human body and skin
Precautions and Transportation
Precautions for protection and operation
Engineering control: The production process is sealed and fully ventilated. Provide safety shower and eye wash equipment.
Respiratory protection: In high concentration environments, direct gas masks (half masks) should be worn.
Eye protection: Wear chemical safety goggles.
Body protection: Wear anti-corrosion work clothes.
Hand protection: Wear rubber gloves.
Other protective measures: Smoking, eating, and drinking are prohibited at the workplace. After work, take a shower and change clothes. Pay attention to personal hygiene and hygiene.
Transport:
Transportation precautions: The packaging should be complete during transportation and the loading should be secure. During transportation, it is necessary to ensure that the container does not leak, collapse, fall, or be damaged. It is strictly prohibited to mix and transport with acids, edible chemicals, etc. Transport vehicles should be equipped with leak emergency response equipment during transportation. During transportation, it is necessary to prevent exposure to sunlight, rain, and high temperatures. During road transportation, it is necessary to follow the prescribed route and not stay in residential areas or densely populated areas.
