Market Overview of Sodium Hypochlorite (Bleach Liquor)

Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) is a solution that is made from reacting chlorine

with a sodium hydroxide solution. These two reactants are the major co-
products from the most chlor-alkali cells. Sodium hypochlorite majorly known
as bleach has a variety of uses and is an excellent disinfectant/antimicrobial
agent. Sodium Hypochlorite is a compound that can be effectively used
for water purification.

Why Do Venture into the Business of Sodium Hypochlorite

· It is being used on a large scale majorly for surface purification, chemical

industries, paint- and lime industries, food industries, glass industries, paper
industries, pharmaceutical industries, synthetics industries, and waste
disposal industries. In the industry of textile, sodium hypochlorite is used to
bleach textile. It is sometimes added to industrial wastewater. This is done to
remove odors. Hypochlorite neutralizes Sulphur hydrogen gas and ammonia.
It is also used to detoxify cyanide baths in metal industries. Hypochlorite is
used to prevent algae and shellfish growth in cooling towers. In water treatment,
hypochlorite is used to disinfect water. In the household, hypochlorite is used
frequently for the purification and disinfection of the house. Sodium
hypochlorite can easily and be stored and transported when it is produced on-
site.

Sodium hypochlorite, majorly called liquid bleach, is traditionally a household

chemical, it is typically used as a bleaching agent or disinfectant across the
globe. When put in solution form, the compound can easily decompose,
thereby liberating chlorine, and is hence broadly uses as a disinfectant and
bleaching agent. The product finds the majority of its application as a bleaching
agent across an array of industries, including pulp and paper, detergent, and
textiles.

Moreover, due to the recent COVID-19 global pandemic, one of the major
sectors that reflected immense sales globally was the sanitizer industry.
The impact of the virus spread led to the direct realization of the essence of
personal hygiene, which led to the usage of hand sanitizers and other
disinfectant products. Sodium hypochlorite is one of the key feedstock
consumed these hygiene and disinfectant products by companies globally.

Sodium Hypochlorite Market Overview

Globally, the market of sodium hypochlorite was valued at USD 207.0 million
in the year 2019 and is anticipated to grow at a compound annual growth rate
of 4.9 % from 2020 to 22027. Increasing demand for the product from water
treatment chemical manufacturing companies as well as from sanitizer
producers worldwide is projected to remain key factors for the market growth.
Additionally, according to the ministry of health and family welfare of multiple
Asian nations, office spaces, residential complexes, public toilets, and outdoor
areas are needed to be highly disinfected using products with
specified concentrations of sodium hypochlorite. For the formulation of 1 %
sodium hypochlorite liquid bleach, available chlorine is 3.5%, whereas,
for sodium hypochlorite liquid, 5 % chlorine is available. Chlorine is one of the
most important components of the disinfectant industry due to its ability to kill
pathogens that includes virus and several bacteria. This is expected to drive
demand for the product in disinfectant applications over the foreseeable future.

Talking about volume, the cleaning and disinfection application segment

dominated the market with a share of 59.0 % in the year 2019. This is attributed
to the widespread demand for sodium hypochlorite in the formulation of
household products, swimming pool sanitizing products, and water treatment
products. The application of sodium hypochlorite in the formulation of water
treatment chemicals has been dominating across the globe for decades.
