What is the difference between stabilized chlorine dioxide and AlfaSIP?
The term ‘stabilized chlorine dioxide’ is misleading. Formulations so-named contain sodium chlorite and activating agents that react to release chlorine dioxide slowly, producing low concentrations of ClO2 at an acidic pH and containing high levels of the chlorite ion (ClO2-) that remain in solution. Because the small quantity of chlorites present in the AlfaSIP-50D envelope cannot escape into the activated solution, AlfaSIP is generally compatible with most materials, and effective in oxidizing.: Example solution analysis: Stabilized ClO2 2.5% ClO2 pure 134 ppm Chlorite pH 3.04 AlfaSIP >99% ClO2 pure 0.6 ppm Chlorite pH 6.9 In what conditions is AlfaSIP not appropriate? The conditions to avoid (those which can degrade AlfaSIP) are: – The presence of readily-oxidizable substances – A pH of 10 – The presence of reducing agents such as NaHSO4 – Temperatures above 35C (95F) To discover how AlfaSIP can benefit you, please meet us at the leading exhibitions and congresses.
