What is the use of trichloroisocyanuric acid?

TCCA is a common sanitizer that is used in swimming pools. It is a strong oxidizer that kills bacteria and other microorganisms. TCCA is also effective against algae, fungi, and viruses. While TCCA is generally safe to use, it can be harmful if it is ingested or inhaled. TCCA can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. If TCCA is ingested, it can cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Inhaling TCCA can cause coughing, wheezing, and difficulty breathing. TCCA should be used with caution and only in well-ventilated areas.

Is trichloroisocyanuric acid the same as chlorine?

What is Trichloroisocyanuric Acid? TCCA, also called Trichlor and Chloreal, is an organic compound with various domestic and industrial applications. It is a white, crystalline powder that is commonly used as an outstanding source of chlori

Trichloroisocyanuric acid is an organic compound with the formula (C3Cl3N3O3). It is used as an industrial disinfectant, bleaching agent and a reagent in organic synthesis.
 
Trichloroisocyanuric acid is commonly produced by chlorinating the trisodium salt of cyanuric acid. This chlorination process is extremely exothermic. ‘Ih’e trisodium salt is normally obtained by reacting cyanuric acid and sodium hydroxide in a molar ratio of about 1.0 to 3.0.
 
Calcium hypochlorite increases pH, alkalinity and calcium hardness levels. Calcium hardness is important in water in that it protects surfaces, including plaster and metal, from corroding. Trichlor, on the other hand, reduces pH and alkalinity, but increases cyanuric acid (CYA).
 
The chemical compound trichloroethylene is a halocarbon commonly used as an industrial solvent. It is a clear, colourless non-flammable liquid with a chloroform-like sweet smell.
 
Trichlor products usually come in tablet form and are a mix of chlorine and cyanuric acid. And that mix helps to stabilize the chlorine, meaning germs and sunlight won’t use it up as fast.
