  • Sodium hypochlorite compositions
    Patent number: 10836636
    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions comprising comminuted sodium hypochlorite pentahydrate crystals with an average length-to-diameter ratio of less than about 20:1, and a mother liquor saturated in sodium hypochlorite, which has excess alkalinity and/or one or more additional alkali or alkali earth metal salts. Processes for preparing these compositions will be presented.
    Type: Grant

  • Sodium hypochlorite composition and method of storing and transporting sodium hypochlorite
    Patent number: 9434616
    Abstract: A sodium hypochlorite composition comprising between about 25% and about 40% sodium hypochlorite, in the form of a slurry of sodium hypochlorite pentahydrate crystals in a mother liquor saturated in sodium hypochlorite. The composition can include sodium chloride, and an alkai stabilizer such as sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate. The slurry is preferably between about ?15° C. and about 10° C. A method of transporting or storing sodium hypochlorite is also provided in which the sodium hypochlorite is in the form of a slurry of sodium hypochlorite pentahydrate crystals in a mother liquor saturated in sodium hypochlorite. The composition can include sodium chloride, and an alkali stabilizer such as sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate. The slurry is preferably between about ?15° C. and about 10° C.
