I use a bleach or hydrogen peroxide or phenol or modified phenol product. Why should I switch to FORMULA D2 sanitizing solution?
Bleach, also known as chlorine bleach or sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) is a powerful oxidizing chemical that when mixed with water, forms chlorine radicals that aggressively oxidize other substances. This makes sodium hypochlorite a powerful disinfectant. Aside from the economical purification of drinking water, sodium hypochlorite can be substituted in most commercial processes. The key advantage of sodium hypochlorite is it’s low purchase price. In application, sodium hypochlorite corrodes and plastics and metals, decreasing the useful life of these materials. Chlorine is a respiratory irritant. It also attacks mucus membranes and burns the skin. As little as 3.5 ppm can be detected as an odor, and 1000 ppm is likely to be fatal after a few deep breaths. Exposure to chlorine should not exceed 0.5 ppm (8-hour time-weighted average – 40 hour week). Another hazard is the formation of dangerous chlorine gas when bleach comes into contact with ammonia. This can happen when it is accidentall
