Calcium Hypochlorite applications
Safety and handling
- Classification
- oxidising
Store sealed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from acids, organic matter, reducing agents, flammable materials and incompatible chemicals. Keep dry; moisture and heat can accelerate decomposition. Handle as a strong oxidiser with suitable personal protection and follow the safety data for the quoted grade. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.
Common questions about calcium hypochlorite
Is calcium hypochlorite the same as sodium hypochlorite?
No. Calcium hypochlorite is a dry solid, often sold as granules, powder or tablets and known regionally as kaporit. Sodium hypochlorite is an aqueous bleach solution. They share available chlorine as the active principle but differ in form, handling, storage and dosing method, so they are quoted as separate products.
What is kaporit?
Kaporit is a common regional name for calcium hypochlorite, the dry chlorinating solid used for water treatment, pool dosing and industrial sanitation. State granules, powder or tablets and any available-chlorine target when you enquire so the quotation matches the grade you need.
Which form should I request, granules, powder or tablets?
Granules are widely used for water and pool chlorination and batch make-up. Powder suits solution preparation and bleaching baths. Tablets suit feeder or basket dosing. Describe the dosing method and application so the offer can match form and packing.
What available chlorine should I specify?
Available chlorine is the main strength control for dry calcium hypochlorite. Commercial industrial grades are typically high available-chlorine products, but exact limits vary by grade. State any target percentage or attach the current specification with your enquiry.
Is bleaching powder or chlorine of lime the same product?
Those terms are historical and sometimes describe mixed lime-chlorine materials rather than a defined high-test calcium hypochlorite grade. For procurement, request calcium hypochlorite by form and available chlorine instead of relying on the older mixture names alone.
What details are needed for a calcium hypochlorite price enquiry?
Provide form or grade, available chlorine if known, application, quantity and delivery location. List preferred packing and any required documents so the quotation can cover the full requirement.
