Sodium perborate monohydrate

It offers many of the functional benefits as liquid hydrogen peroxide in a stable solid form.

                                        Sodium Perborate Monohydrate

Hazard Class: 5.1

DescriptionSodium perborate monohydrate is prepared by dehydrating sodium perborate tetrahydrate.The monohydrated form is essentially showing three advantages in comparison with thetetrahydrated form: a higher content of available oxygen, a higher heat stability anda higher dissolution rate into water. It provides a high available oxygen contentequivalent to 32% hydrogen peroxide - 50% more active oxygen than the same weight of sodiumperborate tetrahydrate. Sodium perborate releases nascent oxygen at elevatedtemperatures, it is a stable, solid source of active oxygen

It’s main disadvantage is that the bleaching action only takes place at elevatedtemperatures over 60°C. To release it’s bleaching action at lower temperatures, anactivator e.g. TAED must be added.

This product will decompose in the environment to natural borate. Although boron is anessential micronutrient for healthy growth of plants, it can be harmful to boron sensitiveplants in higher quantities. Care should be taken to minimize the amount of borate productreleased to the environment.

ApplicationsSodium Perborate monohydrate is similar to sodium percarbonate as a famous oxygen bleach agent. It offers many of the functional benefits as liquid hydrogen peroxide in a stable solid form. Its oxidative power improves the cleaning, bleaching, stain removal and deodorizing performance of powder detergent formulations, all fabric dry bleaches, denture cleaners, automatic dishwasher detergents and various institutional and industrial laundry products.

StorageOxidizer. Store in a cool, well ventilated area away from all source of ignition and out of direct sunlight. Store in a dry location away from heat. Store at temperatures less than 40 °C. 

Keep away from incompatible materials. Keep containers tightly closed. Do not store in unlabeled or mislabeled containers.  Protect from moisture. Do not store near combustible materials. Keep containers well sealed, seal only with original vent cap. Ensure pressure relief and adequate ventilation.  Store separately from organics and reducing materials. Avoid contamination which may lead to decomposition.
