Audited Supplier Calcium hypochlorite is an inorganic compound with formula Ca(ClO)2. It is a white solid, although commercial samples appear yellow. It strongly smells of chlorine, owing to its slow decomposition in moist air. This compound is relatively stable as a solid and solution and has greater available chlorine than sodium hypochlorite. "Pure" samples have 99.2% active chlorine. Given common industrial purity, an active chlorine content of 65-70% is typical. It is the main active ingredient of commercial products called bleaching powder, used for water treatment and as a bleaching agent.

Calcium hypochlorite is commonly used to sanitize public swimming pools and disinfect drinking water. Generally the commercial substances are sold with a purity of 65% to 73% with other chemicals present, such as calcium chloride and calcium carbonate, resulting from the manufacturing process. In solution, calcium hypochlorite could be used as a general purpose sanitizer, but due to calcium residue (making the water harder), sodium hypochlorite (bleach) is usually preferred.
Calcium hypochlorite is a general oxidizing agent and therefore finds some use in organic chemistry. For instance the compound is used to cleave glycols, α-hydroxy carboxylic acids and keto acids to yield fragmented aldehydes or carboxylic acids. Calcium hypochlorite can also be used in the haloform reaction to manufacture chloroform. Calcium hypochlorite can be used to oxidize thiol and sulfide byproducts in organic synthesis and thereby reduce their odour and make them safe to dispose of. The reagent used in organic chemistry is similar to the sanitizer at ~70% purity.
Calcium Hypochlorite is packed in 10kgs,25kgs,40kgs,45kgs,50kgs plastic drums or 50kgs iron drums with PVC plastic bag
18MT-23.625MT will be loaded in 1*20'fcl container.
Storage
Calcium Hypochlorite is a strong oxidant. Should be stored in dry, cool and ventilated place; avoid insolation, fire and heat; do keep it from mixing with organic substances, acids ,oil or reducing agents.when the package is broken and scatters, fast collecting and airproofing the product in time, if the skin be touched with it ,fast washing with diluted ammonia solution.
Fire Fighting
Put out a fire with yellow sand, carbon dioxide and foam, don't use ordinary vitriol fire extinguisher
