Chlor-Alkali chemistry helps you all over your house
Since its discovery, ‘bleach’ has proven to be a very effective disinfectant. As dilute sodium hypochlorite, very few bacteria can resist it. However, it must be handled with care and never used with acids (like those that unblock drains) as this can lead to the formation of chlorine gas. Polyurethane is found in flexible foams for furniture padding and can be formed in a complex chemical reaction in which chlorine chemistry plays a vital role. These create comfortable chairs and beds for us to enjoy our spare time.- Chlorinated solvents at dry-cleaners to get our clothes ready for your big day,
- Cleaning up kennels and catteries to keep our pets healthy.
- Strong and attractive doors, sidings and fascias made from aluminium, which is purified by caustic soda,
