Sodium Perborate NaBO₃·4H₂O / NaBO₃·H₂O CAS 10486-00-7 / 10332-33-9

Tree Chem’s Sodium Perborate includes both Tetrahydrate (NaBO₃·4H₂O) and Monohydrate (NaBO₃·H₂O) grades, produced under controlled conditions to ensure high stability, low iron content (≤0.0015%), and uniform particle size. The product offers excellent storage stability and high active oxygen levels (≥10.0% for tetrahydrate, ≥15.1% for monohydrate), making it suitable for industrial and household cleaning formulations.

With its versatility as an oxidizing and bleaching agent, Sodium Perborate is widely used across detergent, disinfectant, paper & textile, adhesive, and energy sectors. It plays a critical role in formulations for stain removal, sterilization, and controlled oxygen release. Tree Chem supplies both grades in moisture-resistant packaging suitable for long-term storage and transport.

Applications

Detergent Industry

• Sodium Perborate is one of the most important oxygen-based bleaching agents used in detergent formulations. It is widely applied in powder detergents, liquid detergents, and laundry capsules, providing strong bleaching power and effective stain removal through slow oxygen release.
• In powder detergents, its content ranges from 8–20%, and in oxygen bleach powders it can reach up to 80%. The compound offers high performance at medium to high washing temperatures (40–60 °C) and is often combined with TAED for low-temperature activation.
• In liquid detergents, Sodium Perborate is typically added in suspension form to ensure stability, enhancing cleaning power and whitening efficiency. In laundry capsules, it contributes to low-temperature solubility and fast dissolution while protecting fabric color and texture.

Pharmaceutical and Personal Care Industry

• In pharmaceuticals, Sodium Perborate is used as a disinfectant, antiseptic, and mild oxidizing agent. It serves as an active ingredient in tooth-whitening gels (5–15%), mouth rinses (0.5–2%), and denture cleaning tablets, providing effective antibacterial action through controlled hydrogen peroxide release.
• In the personal care sector, it is incorporated in facial masks, scrubs, shampoos, and hair-care formulations to enhance skin freshness, aid exfoliation, and deliver mild oxygen-based cleansing. Its versatility ensures both efficacy and safety for skin-contact applications.

Environmental and Water Treatment Industry

• Sodium Perborate plays a significant role in wastewater and drinking water treatment. It acts as an eco-friendly oxidant, capable of removing organic pollutants, reducing COD by 60–85%, and eliminating color by up to 90%. In cyanide and heavy-metal wastewater, it oxidizes contaminants into safer forms for subsequent removal.
• For drinking water, it provides strong disinfection and deodorization at dosages of 0.5–2 mg/L, killing 99.9% of microorganisms and improving water clarity and taste.

Agriculture and Aquaculture Industry

• In agriculture, Sodium Perborate serves as both an oxygen supplier and a boron micronutrient, improving soil aeration and fertility. It is used in soil conditioners (5–10%) and foliar sprays (0.1–0.3%) to promote flowering and fruit set while preventing boron deficiency.
• In aquaculture, it functions as an oxygen enhancer and water improver, increasing dissolved oxygen levels and suppressing harmful microorganisms. Combined with sodium percarbonate and zeolite, it effectively stabilizes pond ecosystems.

Textile, Paper, and Food Industries

• Sodium Perborate is an efficient bleaching agent in textile and paper manufacturing. It is suitable for cotton, wool, and silk, providing strong whitening without damaging fibers. In pulp bleaching, it increases brightness and reduces impurities, improving paper quality.
• In food processing, Sodium Perborate is used for flour bleaching, oil decolorization, and equipment sterilization. Its controlled oxidizing power ensures hygiene and color improvement under safe operating conditions.

Emerging and Innovative Applications

• Recent advancements highlight the use of nano Sodium Perborate (50–200 nm) and controlled-release technologies for more efficient and targeted oxidation. Smart coating systems allow pH- or temperature-responsive oxygen release for customized industrial and biomedical applications.
• In the field of renewable energy, it is being studied as a solid oxygen source for fuel cells and as a component of advanced functional materials. Its compatibility with sustainable manufacturing makes it an important contributor to green chemistry and clean production technologies.

Storage & Handling

• Store in dry, cool, and well-ventilated areas away from acids and reducing agents.
• Keep containers tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption.
• Avoid direct sunlight and mechanical impact.
• Use non-sparking tools and observe standard peroxide safety measures.
