Sodium Hypochlorite/Sodium Hypochlorite Disinfectant / CAS 7681-52-9

Sodium hypochlorite

CAS NO: 7681-52-9 

Alias: Sodium Hypochlorite (Liquid); Bleach; Sodium Hypochlorite Solution;

Product performance

It is easily soluble in water to generate caustic soda and hypochlorous acid, and hypochlorous acid is decomposed to generate hydrogen chloride and nascent oxygen. Due to the strong oxidizing ability of nascent oxygen, sodium hypochlorite is a strong oxidant. Its stability is affected by light, heat, heavy metal cations, and pH. Has a pungent odor. Anhydrous reagents have not been isolated. Alkaline solutions are colorless liquids. Slowly decompose NaCl, NaClO3 and O2. The rate of decomposition is related to concentration and free base. Light or heat can accelerate decomposition.
