Description
Sodium Chlorite is white liquid and crystalline, it is stable in room temperature and normal storage conditions, it should be far away from acid because sodium chlorite very easily to reaction with acid and release chlorine dioxide gas. It should be not strong crashing and not contact with reducible material and acid, otherwise can be explosion or fire.

Product Character and Advantage
Sodium Chlorite has high content and stability, can easily dissolve in water, and has difficult hardpan. It is an oxidizing agent with high efficiency and an excellent bleaching reagent. The pure sodium chlorite is equal to 10 times of bleaching powder. The more important characteristic is that it has the moderate ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential)
Applications
Sodium Chlorite is a kind of latest, efficient bleacher and bactericide. Previously, it is applied to bleach flax, cotton, fibers, textiles etc. Sodium Chlorite has been expanding its using fields with the running raise of people's concept, especially the further application of the fourth generation disinfectant (ClO2) on medicine and health, food-processing, aquaculture, drinking water disinfection, industry water treatment, dry flower procedure and so on.
