Sodium percarbonate (2Na₂CO₃·3H₂O₂) is an adduct of sodium carbonate and hydrogen peroxide in a 2:3 molar ratio. It acts as a stable, solid-form source of hydrogen peroxide — when dissolved in water it releases H₂O₂ and sodium carbonate, providing a powerful oxidising action without the handling risks of liquid hydrogen peroxide.
Our sodium percarbonate is supplied at 100% purity (Oxyper grade), making it suitable for demanding applications including detergent formulation, textile bleaching, water treatment, and environmental remediation. Available in 500g glass jars, 1kg plastic tubs, and bulk 10-jar packs.
💡 Key Benefits
-
Eco-friendly — breaks down into water, oxygen, and sodium carbonate with no toxic residues.
-
Odour eliminator — destroys organic smells at the source rather than masking them.
-
Multi-surface — safe for laundry, grout, decking, carpets, and general cleaning.
-
Colour safe — brightens whites and is safe on most coloured fabrics.
-
Stable storage — far safer and more stable than liquid hydrogen peroxide.
🛠️ How to Use
-
Water temperature — use water above 40°C to fully activate the compound.
-
Mix fresh — prepare solution immediately before use; potency diminishes after 5–6 hours.
-
Laundry boost — add 1–2 tablespoons directly into the washing drum.
-
General spray — dissolve 1 tablespoon per cup of warm water.
⚠️ Safety & Limitations
-
Storage — keep container tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from moisture.
-
Pressure risk — never seal a wet mixture in an airtight container; oxygen gas will build up.
-
Material limits — do not use on silk, wool, or leather.
-
Metal warning — avoid prolonged contact with aluminium or polished metals.
