Sodium Percarbonate (Na2CO3*1.5 H2O2) is a product used by detergent manufacturers as a solid, ecological, and highly stable bleaching agent. It is also known as SODIUM CARBONATE PEROXIDE, Disodium carbonate, compound with hydrogen peroxide (2:3), Percarbonate de soude, Peroxhydrate de carbonate de sodium, Carbonate de sodium peroxyhydraté.
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 improperly called "solid hydrogen peroxide". It has degreasing, softening, whitening, stain-removing, and pH-regulating properties.
Sodium percarbonate comes in the form of granulated white powder. We offer it in 25 kg bags for professional use.
