QUIMPAC produces sodium hypochlorite by a controlled reaction of sodium hydroxide in an aqueous solution with gaseous chlorine.


As it is an exothermic reaction, the product under preparation is cooled in soft water.

Presentation
Sodium hypochlorite is commercialized as a 10% active chlorine solution.

Domestic Dispatch (in Peru)
Sodium hypochlorite is sold in bulk on fiber glass and polyester cistern trucks. In other cases, the iron cisterns are coated with fiber glass and polyester. These cisterns have a capacity of 6 to 18 MT.

This product is also sold in 250 kg. plastic bins, hermetically sealed.
 
 

 
 
 
Clear aqueous solution, with no sediments, with a light greenish-yellow color.
     
Penetrating and irritating.
     
1.16 at 20° C
     
1.20 NTU
     
Highly oxidant solution.
     
  Depending on the solution pH, it is dissociated as active chlorine, hypochlorous acid HOCl and/or hypochlorite OCl-.
     
  Its reactivity in the oxidation, chlorination and biochemical action depends on these “active free chlorine” forms. Highly efficient in the bacteriological and microbiological control.
 
 
 

Disinfection, sterilization, detoxification, discoloration,and deodorization of industrial, drinking and pool waters.

In the washing process (cellulose, paper pulp and textiles).
Production of ferric hydroxide Fe(OH)3, manganese dioxide, nitrates, sulfates and cyanides (by reaction with cyanides).
