Sodium chlorite |

[Chemical name]
Sodium chlorite
Molecular formula: NaClO2
Molecular weight: 90.45
CAS NO: 7758-19-2
Appearance: white crystalline powder or granular;
[Quality Standard]
Chemical Industry Standard: HG/T3250-2023
[Product Properties]
Sodium chlorite is alkaline and slightly hygroscopic. Easily soluble in water and alcohol. Granular Sodium chlorite is relatively stable at room temperature and normal storage conditions. Its stability is greater than sodium hypochlorite and less than sodium chlorate. When solid and alkaline aqueous solutions are heated above 170°C, they decompose into sodium chlorate and sodium hypochlorite, which are easily decomposed when exposed to acid. Chlorine dioxide gas is released. It is easy to explode or burn when in contact with, impact, or friction with wood chips, organic matter, and reducing substances!
[Product Uses]
Sodium chlorite is mainly used to make chlorine dioxide disinfectants, and is also used for bleaching cotton, linen, fiber, oil, pulp, etc., metal surface treatment, and water sterilization.
[Storage and transportation, precautions]
Sodium chlorite belongs to hazardous chemicals category 5.1, UN NO: 1496. During transportation, it must not be mixed with acids and reducing substances; it should be stored in a cool and dry place, away from fire and heat sources, and must not be mixed with acids and reducing substances. In case of fire, water, sand, and dry powder fire extinguishers can be used to put out the fire. Sodium chlorite dust is irritating to respiratory tubes, eyes and skin. If its solution accidentally splashes into your eyes or skin, you should rinse it with clean water immediately. If you swallow it by mistake, you should drink salt water or warm soapy water immediately and let it spit out. He was sent to the hospital for treatment. The lethal dose was 10 grams.
