TCCA 90 is a premium trichloroisocyanuric acid available in 20g and 200g tablets, boasting a 90% active chlorine content. These water treatment tablets are highly effective for disinfecting and treating various types of water, particularly hard water, due to their neutral pH impact.
As a chlorine source, TCCA 90% excels in controlling biofouling in swimming pools, industrial water systems, and cooling water systems. It is recognized as a more efficient and economical alternative to traditional chlorination methods like bleaching powder and sodium hypochlorite.
When dissolved in water, TCCA 90% hydrolyzes into Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl), a compound with potent antimicrobial properties. The resulting by-product, cyanuric acid, acts as a stabilizer, protecting hypochlorous acid from degradation into the less effective hypochlorite ion (OCl-) due to exposure to sunlight and heat.

- **Cost-effective and stable chlorine source:** Provides a reliable supply of chlorine without the need for expensive dosing equipment.
- **Easy handling and application:** Convenient to handle, ship, store, and use.
- **No white turbidity:** Unlike bleaching powder, TCCA does not cause white turbidity in water.
