Product Description – Sodium Perborate
Sodium Perborate is an inorganic peroxide-based compound commonly supplied as Sodium Perborate Monohydrate or Sodium Perborate Tetrahydrate. It typically appears as a white, free-flowing crystalline powder or granules.
When dissolved in water, it provides an active-oxygen bleaching system. This property makes it useful in powdered detergents, laundry formulations, stain removers, and selected cleaning products where controlled oxidation is required.
Compared with chlorine-based bleaching systems, oxygen-based bleaching agents can be suitable for applications where formulators want effective stain removal without relying on chlorine chemistry. Actual performance depends on concentration, temperature, formulation, and the use of suitable bleaching activators.
At Sanvil Industries Ltd, we supply Sodium Perborate for detergent, textile, cleaning, and industrial manufacturing requirements, backed by competitive pricing, dependable supply, and efficient delivery throughout East Africa.
