Product Description
Sodium hypochlorite solution is commonly known as bleach or liquid bleach and is used for disinfecting, sanitizing, and bleaching applications. This chemical compound with the formula NaClO is a clear, pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odour of chlorine. The concentration of sodium hypochlorite solution can vary depending on its intended use. For household bleach, the concentration is typically between 5-6%. For industrial or commercial use, the concentration can be much higher, between 10-25%. It is a strong oxidizing agent that can also be harmful if ingested or if it comes into contact with the skin or eyes. Therefore, handle it with care and follow the safety precautions.
