- What is TCCA?
TCCA is a commonly used chemical raw material, its full name is trichloroisocyanuric acid. TCCA is a chemical substance with high-efficiency disinfection, sterilization, and bleaching functions. It is widely used in swimming pool water treatment, drinking water disinfection, toilet cleaning, and fruit and vegetable preservation. The chemical structure of TCCA is C3Cl3N3O3, which is a white powder or granular solid. It can slowly dissolve in water and release a certain concentration of available chlorine, which can quickly kill bacteria, viruses, fungi and other microorganisms, and has a good bleaching effect. The advantages of TCCA include convenient use, good bactericidal effect, short residual period, high stability, etc., so it is widely used in various disinfection, bleaching and cleaning fields.
- Types and characteristics of TCCA
TCCA, or trichloroisocyanuric acid, is commonly found in three forms:
A. TCCA powder: the appearance is white powder, soluble in water, easy to use, widely used in swimming pool water treatment, drinking water disinfection, toilet cleaning and other fields.
B. TCCA granule: white or light yellow granular in appearance, dissolves slowly and releases a certain concentration of available chlorine. It is also commonly used in swimming pool water treatment, drinking water disinfection, toilet cleaning and other fields.
C. TCCA tablet: white or light yellow flake in appearance, stable content, easy to carry and use, often used in outdoor travel, camping, first aid and other occasions, for drinking water disinfection, wound disinfection, etc.
TCCA has the following characteristics:
A. Efficient sterilization: The available chlorine released by TCCA can quickly kill bacteria, viruses, fungi and other microorganisms, and the sterilization effect is good.
B. Short residual period: The residues generated after the decomposition of TCCA are trichlorourea and acid, which have a short residual period and will not cause pollution and harm to the environment and human body.
C. Easy to use: TCCA powder, granules, tablets and other forms are easy to use and can meet the disinfection requirements of different occasions and needs.
D. High stability: TCCA has good stability, long storage period, and is not easy to be affected by moisture, deterioration and volatilization.
E. With bleaching function: TCCA can bleach and is often used to clean toilets, kitchens and other places.
- Application Scenarios of TCCA
TCCA, namely trichloroisocyanuric acid, is a commonly used disinfectant, which has the characteristics of high-efficiency sterilization, good stability, and convenient use, and is widely used in the following scenarios:
A. Swimming pool water treatment: TCCA can quickly kill bacteria, viruses, algae and other microorganisms in the swimming pool, and keep the swimming pool water clean and hygienic. TCCA can be used as a disinfectant as well as an oxidizer and cleaner, effectively removing deposits and odors from swimming pools.
