  2. Bleach activator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleach_activator

    Bleach activation is also known as perhydrolysis. Persalts are inorganic salts that are used as hydrogen peroxide carriers (examples include sodium percarbonate and sodium perborate). Persalts and bleach activators are included together in powder laundry detergents that contain bleach. In the wash, both compounds dissolve in the water.

  3. Sodium percarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_percarbonate

    Sodium percarbonate or sodium carbonate peroxide is a chemical substance with empirical formula Na 2 H 3 C 2 O 6. It is an adduct of sodium carbonate ("soda ash" or "washing soda") and hydrogen peroxide (that is, a perhydrate) whose formula is more properly written as 2 Na 2 CO 3 · 3 H 2 O 2. It is a colorless, crystalline, hygroscopic and ...

    Sodium percarbonate (Na 2 H 3 CO 6), an adduct of hydrogen peroxide and sodium carbonate ("soda ash" or "washing soda", Na 2 CO 3). Dissolved in water, it yields a solution of the two products, that combines the degreasing action of the carbonate with the bleaching action of the peroxide. Sodium perborate (Na 2 H 4 B 2 O 8).

  5. Sodium nonanoyloxybenzenesulfonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_nonanoyloxybenzenes...

    Sodium nonanoyloxybenzenesulfonate (NOBS) is an important component of laundry detergents and bleaches. It is known as a bleach activator for active oxygen sources, allowing formulas containing hydrogen peroxide releasing chemicals (specifically sodium perborate , sodium percarbonate , sodium perphosphate , sodium persulfate , and urea peroxide ...

  6. Retrobright - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retrobright

    Sodium percarbonate may also be used by dissolving it in water and following the usual steps for hydrogen peroxide, as it is sodium carbonate and hydrogen peroxide in a crystalline form. [ 8 ] Ozone gas can also be used for retrobrighting, as long as an ozone generator, a suitable container of sufficient size and a source of UV are available ...

  7. Peroxide-based bleach - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxide-based_bleach

    Sodium percarbonate (Na 2 H 3 CO 6), an adduct of hydrogen peroxide and sodium carbonate ("soda ash" or "washing soda", Na 2 CO 3). Dissolved in water, it yields a solution of the two products, that combines the degreasing action of the carbonate with the bleaching action of the peroxide. Sodium perborate (Na 2 H 4 B 2 O 8).

  8. Campden tablet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campden_tablet

    The sodium metabisulfite in the Campden tablets will trap oxygen that enters the wine, preventing it from doing any harm. It is a common misconception that Campden tablets can be used to halt the ferment process in wine before all the available sugars are converted by the yeast, hence controlling the amount of residual sweetness in the final ...

  9. Trisodium phosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisodium_phosphate

    TSP is used as a cleaning agent, builder, lubricant, food additive, stain remover, and degreaser. [7] As an item of commerce TSP is often partially hydrated and may range from anhydrous Na 3 PO 4 to the dodecahydrate Na 3 PO 4 ·12H 2 O. Most often it is found in white powder form. It can also be called trisodium orthophosphate or simply sodium ...
