What is Trichloroisocyanuric Acid?
Trichloroisocyanuric acid, also known as TCCA or trichlor, is an organic compound with the appearance of pure white powder. With the strong oxidizing and chlorinating features, it can usually be used as a kind of efficient disinfectant or bactericide.
Trichloroisocyanuric acid, also known as TCCA or trichlor, is an organic compound with the appearance of pure white powder. Its strong oxidizing and chlorinating features can make it apply as an efficient disinfectant or bactericide in many fields. Take the maintenance of a swimming pool, for instance; trichloroisocyanuric acid is known for its strong disinfectant effect. When it is in contact with water, chlorine can be released and kill the bacteria and algae, keeping the swimming pool clean and safe.

TCCA usually appears as granules, powder, and tablets, and you can purchase either one of these three products to handle the purifying projects of swimming pools and, lakes, etc. Compared with other chlorine products, the purity of trichlor can usually reach 90% or above; in this circumstance, it can still significantly affect purifying the pools or lakes even if its dosage is lower.
In a word, trichloroisocyanuric acid has become a must-have type of disinfectant in water treatment and sanitation. With its excellent disinfection and stability, TCCA, chlorine tablets, and trichlor granules can be widely applied in swimming pool maintenance, industrial water treatment, textile fabric bleaching, etc.
The Sanitization of a Pool: Trichloroisocyanuric Acid or Trichlor plays a significant part in a variety of pool cleaning products thanks to its chlorine-releasing sustainability. This substance can effectively improve water quality, employing its disinfectant properties and continuous impurity oxidization.
Industrial Water Cleaning: Widely applied in industrial water treatment fields, trichloroisocyanuric acid, or trichlor, can do you a favor by controlling the growth of biofilm, pathogens, and algae in cooling towers and other water circulating systems, effectively reducing the corrosion and contamination of microbial.
Paper and Textile Fabrics Bleaching: Due to its oxidizing feature, trichloroisocyanuric acid can be used as a decolorizer and utilized in the process of paper and textile production, which will have a good effect on the whitening of fabrics and paper.
Public Health and Hygiene: TCCA has a reliable sterilizing function; therefore, it can serve as a sterilizer in public and healthcare institutes and a disinfectant in the municipal water supply system.
Good Chlorine Purity: Trichloroisocyanuric acid has a high concentration level compared with many other disinfectants because of its 90% active chlorine content, which saves lots of cost by using a smaller quantity of chlorine tablets or granules led to the same effective treatment.
Slow Releasing For Longer Effect: Thanks to the low-speed dissolving feature that can continuously release chlorine, you don’t need to throw in the trichlor or TCCA as frequently as you would using other disinfectants during the cleaning process of a swimming pool or lake.
Durable Use and Stable Storage: Because of its stability, trichloroisocyanuric acid never degrades quickly, making its storage and transportation much more manageable than that of other cleaning agents.
Trchloroisocyanuric acid should be stored at a cool and dry place in your warehouse or plant, away from humid and hyperthermal substances with incompatible conditions, to reduce the possibility of unnecessary chemical reactions. Proper storage of trichlor is important, otherwise, toxic gases will be released without correct storage measures.
