Product Overview

Sodium Chlorite Flakes 80% - Technical Grade is a robust oxidizing agent (NaClO₂) engineered for demanding industrial environments. Supplied as a white crystalline flake with a typical assay of 80% (79–81%), this product provides a stable, concentrated source of chlorine dioxide when acidified. It is widely utilized in water treatment systems, chemical synthesis, and industrial bleaching operations where precise oxidative control is required.

This technical-grade material is characterized by a defined impurity profile, ensuring consistent performance in downstream processes. Its solid flake form facilitates easier handling, storage, and dosage compared to liquid alternatives. It is specifically manufactured for industrial applications such as pulp and paper bleaching, textile processing, and chemical stripping. Note: This product is Technical Grade and is not intended for food or pharmaceutical use.

  • Metal Surface Treatment: Oxidant-assisted surface modification and cleaning-in-place (CIP) support for industrial equipment.

Safety & Handling

Signal Word: DANGER

Sodium Chlorite is a Class 5.1 Oxidizer. It supports combustion and may cause fire or explosion if in contact with combustible materials. Causes severe skin burns and eye damage. Handle with chemical-resistant gloves, splash goggles, and face shield. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Store in a cool, dry place away from acids, reducing agents, and organic materials. Keep containers tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption.
