Sourcing Calcium Hypochlorite (65-70%)? ChemicalDekho connects you with top manufacturers like Sree Rayalaseema and GACL. Access high-stability Sodium Process granules for potable water and swimming pools.
Calcium Hypochlorite (CAS 7778-54-3) is the solid form of chlorine favored for its high available chlorine content (up to 70%) and stability compared to liquid bleach. It is the primary disinfectant for municipal drinking water (in remote areas), swimming pools (shock treatment), and textile bleaching. 'Sodium Process' grades are preferred for their superior solubility and lower sludge.
Listings cover standard 65% granules and 70% high-strength variants, packed in UN-approved drums to handle its oxidizing nature.
