Sodium chlorite is an inorganic compound that is often used as an oxidizing agent. It is mainly used in water treatment, in the paper and textile industry and in technical applications.

Areas of application:
- Water treatment and disinfection
- Paper and textile bleaching
- Chemical-technical processes
- Starting material for the production of chlorine dioxide

Solution 28 % (with regard to all substances) or 25 % (with regard to NaClO2)
Formula: NaClO2

Why HDPE bottle?

HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) is a high-density plastic made from PE quality (polyethylene). It is resistant to sodium chlorite. Unlike glass! That's why we only sell sodium chlorite in HDPE containers.

Preparation
Make sure that the room is well ventilated, as chlorine dioxide gas escapes during the chemical reaction and you must not inhale it.
Caution Only mix small quantities, e.g. three drops each. Larger quantities produce large amounts of gas.

Procedure
Drop sodium chlorite (NaClO2) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) in a 1:1 ratio into a clean, dry container (no metal). The dropper insert from our 100 ml vials is suitable for this. Alternatively, you can use our Pasteur pipette (rinse well with water after using each chemical).
After approx. 45 seconds you can add your desired amount of water and the resulting CDS is ready.
what is CDS ?

Ready-made Mychem CDS compared to the self-prepared CDS
One drop of NaClO2 and HCI each corresponds to the effective quantity of eight drops of our ready-made CDS.
Example: 3 drops of NaClO2mixed with 3 drops of HCl = 24 drops Mychem CDS

Purity
The CDS obtained by mixing NaClO2 and HCl contains by-products from the raw chemicals and does not achieve the purity of our finished CDS.

The manufacturing process of our CDS is a special, elaborate Mychem in-house development based on the reaction process.
For the manufacturing process, we only use high-purity, very expensive raw materials that are not commercially available.
The result is our CDS in its purest form.

Sodium chlorite has a practically unlimited shelf life.
Sodium chlorite can be stored at room temperature, protected from direct sunlight.

Make sure that you keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
