The role of sodium percarbonate is to exacerbate the combustion of flammable substances, dissolved in water to extract soda ash, disinfection and bleaching; the use of sodium percarbonate is the chemical metallurgy, food industry, health care and other aspects.
1, the role of sodium percarbonate
Sodium percarbonate produces oxygen when it is heated, so when some flammable substances are burned by adding sodium percarbonate as a flammable agent to be used to exacerbate the combustion of flammable substances. When dissolved in water, sodium percarbonate releases hydrogen peroxide and soda ash, which can be used as a raw material to extract soda ash. Sodium percarbonate in aqueous solution free active oxygen with oxidation disinfection bleaching effect.
2, the use of sodium percarbonate
Chemical metallurgy: sodium percarbonate can improve the quality of the product can also reduce the alkali powder for the corrosion of refractory materials, increase the service life of the kiln.
Food industry: sodium percarbonate can be used as a neutralizer or bulking agent, can also be configured to become lye to add to the pasta inside, so that the pasta to increase a certain degree of elasticity.
Medical and health care: Sodium percarbonate produces oxygen at a fast rate and supplies a large amount of oxygen, which is suitable for underground construction and mining, flood control, firefighting, disaster relief and other first aid occasions, and is a kind of first-aid oxygen supply agent with excellent performance.
Sodium percarbonate storage precautions
1, sodium percarbonate stored in dry and clean, well ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire, heat and direct sunlight. The room temperature is below 40°C and the relative humidity is kept below 75%.
2. Keep the container sealed and pay attention to the label intact without missing. Handling should be lightly loaded and unloaded to prevent damage to packaging and containers, and pay attention to maintain normal pressure discharge of the container. Rainy days should not be transported.
3. Avoid contact of sodium percarbonate with eyes, skin and clothes. Keep the air in the surrounding environment smooth during operation. Do not swallow, do not inhale dust, mist, gas. Do not eat, drink or smoke in the working environment.
4, sodium percarbonate should be stored separately from flammable or combustible materials, reducing agents, sulfur, phosphorus, etc., do not mix storage and transportation. Avoid contact with other substances that may cause decomposition of the product.
