Sodium dichloroisocyanurate (NaDCC) and TCCA are widely used as disinfectants and sanitizers in various industries, including water treatment, swimming pools, and healthcare settings. However, the inadvertent presence of sodium sulfate in NaDCC and NaTCC can compromise their effectiveness and quality. In this article, we will discuss detection methods to determine the presence of sodium sulfate in sodium dichloroisocyanurate and sodium trichloroisocyanurate, enabling efficient quality control processes and ensuring the purity of these important compounds.
1. Weight approx 2 g of the sample into 20 to 50 g of water, stirred for 10 minutes. Stand by till the upper liquid is clear.
2. Apply 3 drops of the upper clear solution onto a black background.
3. Drip 1 drop of 10% SrCl2.6H2O solution into the clear solution on the black background. If the sample contains sodium sulfate, the solution will turn white cloudy quickly, while no significant change will happen in the solution of pure SDIC/TCCA.
The presence of sodium sulfate in sodium dichloroisocyanurate and sodium trichloroisocyanurate can have detrimental effects on their disinfection properties and quality. The detection methods discussed in this article provide valuable tools for identifying the presence and quantity of sodium sulfate in these compounds. Implementing these detection methods in quality control processes enables industries to ensure the purity and efficacy of sodium dichloroisocyanurate and sodium trichloroisocyanurate, promoting their safe and effective use in various applications.
