Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate (SDIC)

Sodium dichloroisocyanurate (SDIC) is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C3Cl2N3NaO3. It is a white crystalline powder or granular solid that is highly soluble in water.

• Function: Sodium dichloroisocyanurate is widely used as a disinfectant, sanitizer, and algicide in various applications, including water treatment, swimming pool maintenance, household cleaning, and agricultural disinfection. It is effective against a wide range of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and algae.
• Application: SDIC is commonly used for water disinfection in swimming pools, spas, drinking water supplies, and wastewater treatment plants. It is also used for surface disinfection in hospitals, food processing facilities, and household cleaning products. In agriculture, it is employed as a disinfectant for irrigation water, livestock drinking water, and crop protection.
• Characteristics: Sodium dichloroisocyanurate releases chlorine when dissolved in water, which acts as a powerful oxidizing agent to kill and deactivate microorganisms. It is stable and has a long shelf life when stored properly. It is available in different forms, including granules, tablets, and powder, with varying chlorine content.
• Usage: SDIC is typically added to water in the appropriate concentration to achieve the desired disinfection effect. The dosage and application method may vary depending on factors such as water volume, level of contamination, and specific disinfection requirements. It is important to follow manufacturer recommendations and safety guidelines when using SDIC.
