Calcium hypochlorite Uses

Calcium hypochlorite is used for the disinfection of drinking water or swimming pool water. For use in outdoor swimming pools, calcium hypochlorite can be used as a sanitizer in combination with a cyanuric acid stabilizer. The stabilizer will reduce the loss of chlorine because of UV radiation. Calcium does make the water ‘hard’ and tends to clog up some filters. However, some types of calcium hypochlorite do contain anti-scaling agents in order to prevent clogging up of pipes/filters. This grade of calcium hypochlorite can also be used in hard waters. The main advantage of calcium hypochlorite is that it is unstabilised unlike chlorinated isocyanurates such as sodium dichloroisocyanurate or trichloroisocyanuric acid. Latter products do contain cyanuric acid. If the level of cyanuric acid becomes too high, it will influence the performance of the chlorine. Pools running on chlorinated isocyanurates should maintain a free chlorine level between 2 and 5 ppm (mg/L), whereas pools running on calcium hypochlorite should have a chlorine level of 1-2 ppm (mg/L).

Calcium hypochlorite (known as ‘bleaching powder’) is also used for bleaching cotton and linen and is used in the manufacture of chloroform.

Other uses are: 1. As bathroom cleaner 2. Clean secondhand items 3. Glow to glass dish ware 4. Household disinfectant spray 5. Remove moss and alga 6. Sanitize garden tools 7. Kill weeds in walkways 8. Preserve the cut flowers fresh 9. Clean lawn furniture

Monopotassium phosphate:KH2PO4

Monopotassium phosphate is a soluble salt used as an additive in cigarettes, fertilizer and as a fungicide and buffering agent in vaccines. The synthesized, active, end-use product is a crystalline powder containing 100% active ingredient. The chemical abstract service (CAS) number for monopotassium phosphate is 7778-77-0.

Dust may cause irritation of eyes, respiratory tract or skin.

The FDA has considered the various routes of exposure; dietary, drinking water, and exposure from non-occupational sources," (but not injection directly into the human body -- emphasis ours). Little or no information is available about injection of this substance directly into the human body. Adverse effects after injection, both short-term and long-term, are unknown.

"The Agency, on its own initiative, proposed to establish an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of potassium dihydrogen phosphate in or on all food commodities when used as a fungicide to control powdery mildew in fruits and vegetables. This proposed rule was published on March 3, 1998 with a 60-day comment period (63FR10352). The final rule was published on August 12, 1998. Safety factors from the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 (FQPA) were considered."

"EPA waived the acute inhalation study, dermal sensitization study (guinea pig), mutagenicity, cellular immune response, and developmental toxicity data."

Choline Chloride market in China

As per the request of clients, we associated with some big names in poultry industry to study the Choline Chloride market in China and would like to reason as followings for your reference:

The decline of global economy and market led to the sharply falling of the price of raw materials. The downturn comes into economy in worldwide to make the market weak, this situation have been effecting the price of basic raw material down sharply, as the key raw materials of Choline Chloride, the market of Ethylene Oxide and Thrimethylemine stayed in upheaval and the prices kept on decreasing. Its market also changed accordingly to be keep on ping down as well. The biggest ping was over RMB 1700/mt within a day, which made the Choline Chloride production cost decrease by us$45/mt accordingly. Besides, the four key producers of Ethylene Oxide enlarged the production capacity by 50 after their expanding and reconstruction one by one, Supply exceeds demand broke the structure of increasing price caused by monopoly supply. The slump of methanol in international market urged the decreasing of cost of TMA the price of TMA began to decreasing by the market stress. We may conclude that the producing cost of Choline Chloride will fall down further and be back to the level of 5 years ago.

The key producers of Choline Chloride are in serious tribulation, the goods produced by costly raw material are piled up in warehouse. The consumers are not interested in purchasing by cost or even discounted price because they are lack of trust to the market. Thus, they are definitely not able to be free from the great loss. Moreover, to against the danger of the collapse of capital chain, producers have no choice but to dump the goods to get the money back. These make the Choline Chloride market become more and more complicated.

China feed industry, with small domestic demand at present, is going to be worse influenced by the Melamine issue. Here comes the winter season to the market of raw materials of feed.

To improve the growth of the economy, PBOC expressed that the devaluation on the RMB looms. This will decrease the price of Choline Chloride more.

Hence, the Choline Chloride market in China will have a radically change, the price might go stably from the second quarter of next year. But doubtlessly, the price of Chinese Choline Chloride will become absolutely competitive.
