Trichloroisocyanuric acid(TCCA)

Posted on 2013-03-15

Trichloroisocyanuric acid is an organic compound with the formula (C3Cl3N3O3). It is used as an industrial disinfectant, bleaching agent and a reagentin organic synthesis. This white crystalline powder, which has a strong "chlorine odour," is sometimes sold in tablet or granule form for domestic and industrial use. 

Applications

The compound is a disinfectant, algicide and bactericide mainly for swimming pools and dyestuffs, and is also used as a bleaching agent in the textile industries. It is widely used in civil sanitation, pools and spas, preventing and curing diseases in husbandry and fisheries, fruits and vegetables preservation, wastewater treatment, algicide for recycling water of industry and air conditioning, anti shrink treatment for woolen, treating seeds, bleaching fabrics, and organic synthesis.

 

Trichloroisocyanuric acid in swimming pools is easier to handle than chlorine. It dissolves slowly in water, but as it reacts, cyanuric acid concentration in the pool will build-up. At high cyanuric acid concentrations, normal chlorine levels can be rendered ineffective, requiring either dilution by draining and refilling the pool or by adding abnormally high doses of chlorine to overcome this effect.

 

Professional Machine to produce TCCA tablets

Chemical industries like to produce TCCA powder/granular into tablets, such as 20g 50g 100g 150g 200g 250g. Our company developed the large rotary tablet press ZP80-9 series, especially for 100g 200g 250g Chlorine tablets. This large rotary tablet press can produce 4000 pcs of TCCA tablets per hour. One record from our client that it produced 19 tons of TCCA tablets through one day and night (24h). Hebei Jiheng chemical and Nanning chemical group, the two largest chemical industries in china, have used our large rotary tablet press machines. Hebei Jiheng Chemical supplied the TCCA tablets to USA Arch chemical.
