Sodium Hypochlorite (NaOCl) Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- NaOCl
- NaClO
- Bleach
- Sodium Hipoklorit
Sodium hypochlorite supplier enquiries in Malaysia usually specify an aqueous bleach solution graded by available chlorine. Also called NaOCl, NaClO, hypo or liquid chlorine in trade use, it is a pale greenish-yellow solution used for disinfection, sanitising and chlorine bleaching.
Commercial grades are commonly offered around 5%, 10%, 12% and 15% available chlorine. Stronger industrial solutions suit water treatment and bulk plant dosing, while lower strengths are used in cleaning formulations and lighter sanitation work. Send the target strength rather than ordering by name alone.
Water treatment plants use sodium hypochlorite for residual disinfection and pool dosing. Cleaning formulators use it for whitening and hard-surface hygiene, and food, textile and manufacturing sites use suitable strengths for equipment sanitising or chlorine bleach stages.
Send the required available chlorine strength, application, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Sodium Hypochlorite grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sodium hypochlorite 12% available chlorine | pale greenish-yellow aqueous solution | about 12% available chlorine | Standard industrial strength for municipal and industrial water disinfection, swimming-pool dosing and general plant sanitation where a concentrated bleach solution is diluted or metered on site. | Confirm drum, IBC or other pack format with the quotation. |
| Sodium hypochlorite 10% available chlorine | pale greenish-yellow aqueous solution | about 10% available chlorine | Intermediate strength for cleaning formulations, surface disinfection and process sanitising where a slightly lower available chlorine content suits the dosing rate or dilution practice. | Confirm drum, IBC or other pack format with the quotation. |
| Sodium hypochlorite 15% available chlorine | pale greenish-yellow aqueous solution | about 15% available chlorine | Higher available chlorine content for plants that dilute or dose from a stronger bulk solution and want less water freighted per unit of active chlorine. | Confirm drum, IBC or other pack format with the quotation. |
| Sodium hypochlorite 5% available chlorine | pale greenish-yellow aqueous solution | about 5% available chlorine | Dilute bleach grade for general cleaning compounds, light surface sanitation and applications where a lower strength solution is preferred at the point of use. | Confirm drum, IBC or other pack format with the quotation. |

Sodium Hypochlorite applications
Safety and handling
- Classification
- corrosive
Store the solution cool, sealed and well ventilated, away from direct sun, heat, acids, organic materials and reducing agents. Keep containers closed and upright. Never mix sodium hypochlorite with acids or ammonia-based cleaners, because toxic gases can form. Use gloves and eye protection when handling, and follow the safety data for the quoted strength.
Common questions about sodium hypochlorite
What available chlorine strength should I request?
Common commercial strengths for sodium hypochlorite solution include about 5%, 10%, 12% and 15% available chlorine. Water treatment and plant sanitation often use the higher industrial grades, while cleaning formulations may use a lower strength. State the target available chlorine and dosing method so the quotation can address the right grade.
Are bleach, hypo and liquid chlorine the same as sodium hypochlorite?
In industrial trade, bleach, hypo and liquid chlorine often refer to aqueous sodium hypochlorite rather than elemental chlorine gas. Buyers should still state available chlorine strength and the intended use, because dilute household bleach and industrial bulk solution are not interchangeable without checking concentration and packing.
Is NaOCl the same as NaClO?
Yes. NaOCl and NaClO are alternate formula notations for sodium hypochlorite. The commercial product is an aqueous solution graded by available chlorine content, so include the required strength in the enquiry rather than ordering by formula alone.
What specifications should a buyer provide?
State the required available chlorine, free alkali or other assay limits if you hold them, the application, quantity and preferred pack format. For an existing process, a current specification or certificate requirement helps match grade and documentation.
How should sodium hypochlorite solution be stored?
Keep it cool, closed and out of direct sun, away from acids, organics and reducing agents. Strength declines over time, especially when warm, so store only what the process needs and rotate stock. Never mix the solution with acids or ammonia cleaners.
Can packing and documents be requested with the quotation?
Yes. List the preferred drum, IBC or other pack format and any documents required by your quality system. Available packing and documentation for the quoted strength are confirmed before order placement.
How is sodium hypochlorite priced?
Price depends on available chlorine strength, quantity, packing and delivery location. Send those details for a current quotation with a stated validity period rather than relying on a published list price.
