Sodium Percarbonate - CAS No. 15630-89-4

Sodium Percarbonate (Na₂CO₃*1.5 H₂O₂) is a product used by detergent manufacturers as a solid, ecological and very stable bleaching agent. It is also known as SODIUM CARBONATE PEROXIDE, Disodium carbonate, compound with hydrogen peroxide (2:3), Sodium percarbonate, Sodium carbonate peroxhydrate, Sodium carbonate peroxyhydrate.

Water-soluble, sodium percarbonate produces a basic solution. Once diluted, it combines the properties of soda crystals (sodium carbonate) and hydrogen peroxide (oxygen peroxide). This is why it is sometimes incorrectly called "solid hydrogen peroxide". It has degreasing, softening, whitening, stain-removing and pH-regulating properties.

Sodium percarbonate comes in the form of a white granulated powder. We offer it in 25 kg bags for professional use.
