Sodium Percarbonate
Sodium Percarbonate is a versatile, colorless, and hygroscopic solid, available in a soluble crystalline form. Known for its powerful oxidizing properties, it is commonly utilized in various household and laundry products. When dissolved in water, Sodium Percarbonate releases hydrogen peroxide, which ultimately breaks down into water and oxygen, making it an environmentally-friendly choice for cleaning and disinfection.
Key Features:
- Serves as an effective oxidizing agent
- Releases hydrogen peroxide in solution
- Contributes to eco-friendly cleaning options
- Used in organic synthesis as a source of anhydrous H2O2
