Trichloro tablets are one of the most commonly used products, mostly used to eliminate bacteria and microorganisms in homes, public places, industrial wastewater, swimming pools, etc. This is because it is easy to use, has high disinfection efficiency and is affordable.
Trichloro tablets (also known as trichloroisocyanuric acid) are a stable disinfection product containing cyanuric acid. When dissolved in water, hypochlorous acid is produced to achieve the purpose of disinfection. And because of the cyanuric acid component it contains, it can stabilize the efficiency in water. It can still have a long-lasting disinfection effect when exposed to ultraviolet rays.
The tablets also dissolve completely, leaving completely clear, disinfected water without any type of residue in the pool or at the bottom.
Another advantage of trichlor tablets is that they are characterized by not being deposited directly in the water, but being diluted little by little, which is the opposite of the case with liquid chlorine. Liquid chlorine (bleach water) is neither better nor worse in terms of efficiency or quality, but it is more complicated to use and precautions must be taken when handling it because of the potential risks.
In addition, trichloroisocyanuric acid dissolves slowly, and the tablet form can be more durable. It is also easier to use. In the hot summer, it can be more conveniently placed in the pool’s dosing device or float, and the effect lasts longer. Therefore, as the degradation of sunlight is reduced, the persistence of chlorine is greater, and as the acid concentration increases, its persistence in water can be extended.
However, due to this characteristic, there are also some restrictions on the use of trichloro tablets. When using trichlor tablets, use as low a concentration as possible to avoid corrosion of metal fittings or the “locking of chlorine” phenomenon due to the addition of large amounts of cyanuric acid.
Chlorine tablets are also more stable in storage and maintain their active chlorine concentration almost indefinitely, so you can always stock up on tablets for emergencies without having to worry about them losing their effectiveness like other chemical products.
There are many benefits of Trichloro tablets, but they are classified as dangerous goods in terms of transportation regulations. When your country has requirements for the transportation and storage of trichlor, be sure to comply with the regulations and improve safety awareness. In addition, when using it, strictly follow the operating instructions provided by the TCCA manufacturer. And take good protection when using it to avoid damage to the skin and eyes.
