Sodium perborate tetrahydrate
Sodium perborate tetrahydrate (CAS: 10486-00-7) is a white crystalline solid with the linear formula NaBO3·4H2O and a molecular weight of 153.86 g/mol. It is a stable source of hydrogen peroxide, commonly employed as an oxidising agent and bleach in various industrial and household cleaning formulations. Its applications extend to laundry detergents and textile bleaching, where it provides effective stain removal and whitening properties.
Laundry Detergents
Incorporated into laundry powders and tablets, sodium perborate tetrahydrate acts as a bleaching agent, enhancing stain removal and providing whiteness to fabrics, particularly at higher wash temperatures.
Textile Bleaching
Used in the textile industry for bleaching cotton and other natural fibres. It effectively removes natural colouring matter and impurities, preparing fabrics for dyeing and finishing processes.
Industrial Cleaning Agents
Serves as an oxidising component in various industrial cleaning solutions and disinfectants, leveraging its peroxide-releasing capabilities for sanitisation and stain removal.
Wood Bleaching
Applied in the treatment of wood to lighten its colour, often used in furniture manufacturing and restoration to achieve desired aesthetic effects.
