This is essentially household bleach (store bought at 5 to 6%) but is a stronger 12.5% percentage solution .
Sodium Hypochlorite is a disinfectant that is liquid at room temperature and can be dosed with chemical feed pumps.
Sodium Hypochlorite (SH) Bleach is a strong and effective disinfectant, and is effective in killing bacteria, fungi and viruses, including Coronavirus and Influenza virus. SH disinfects within 10 minutes of contact time and may be recommended for surface disinfection in healthcare facilities.
However, bleach irritates mucous membranes, the skin and the airways, decomposes under heat and light, and reacts readily with other chemicals. Therefore, caution is advised when bleach is used. Ventilation should be adequate and consistent with relevant occupational health and safety guidance.
Improper use of bleach, including deviation from recommended dilutions may reduce its effectiveness for disinfection and can result in injury.
Procedures for Preparing/Using Diluted Bleach
- Use a mask, rubber gloves, and waterproof apron. Goggles also are recommended to protect the eyes from splashes.
- Mix and use bleach solutions in well-ventilated areas.
- Mix bleach with cold water because hot water decomposes the sodium hypochlorite and renders it ineffective.
Sodium Hypochlorite: Concentration & Use for Sanitizing
- Recommended dilution 1:200 dilution of 12.5% sodium hypochlorite is the typical for surface sanitization.
- Use 1 part 12.5% bleach to 200 parts cold tap water (1:200 dilution) for disinfection of surfaces.
- Adjust ratio of bleach to water as needed to achieve appropriate concentration of sodium hypochlorite, for other surface cleaning.
For Cleaning Exterior Surfaces for Organics
- Siding, Fences, Decks - use a 1/2% to 1.2% solution
- Roof Cleaning - use a 3% solution, stronger if there is a heavy accumulation of moss or lichens.
Technical Insights into Sodium Hypochlorite
Sodium Hypochlorite is a versatile chemical solution that plays a crucial role in various applications. In its liquid form, it presents a clear, yellow coloration, and its density is measured at 1.17 g/cm³. A standout feature of this chemical is its non-flammable nature, contributing to safety in handling and storage. With a melting point ranging from -20°C to -15°C (-4°F to 5°F), it remains in a liquid state under typical conditions.
The distinct odor of Sodium Hypochlorite is characterized by the scent of chlorine, and its pH levels typically range from 11.5 to 13, making it an effective disinfectant. It finds extensive use in both disinfection and industrial chemical applications, providing valuable versatility. This chemical exhibits complete solubility in water, ensuring ease of mixing, and it maintains a vapor pressure of 12 - 17.5 mmHg at 20°C (68°F). Importantly, Sodium Hypochlorite does not contain any chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm, providing an extra layer of assurance regarding its safety and compliance.
Sodium Hypochlorite is a trusted disinfectant and industrial chemical, offering a valuable combination of properties to meet a variety of needs. From its safe, non-flammable nature to its complete solubility in water, this chemical provides an effective solution for numerous applications.
