Material Safety Data Sheet

http://www.reproline.jhu.edu/
Sodium dichloroisocyanurate (NaDCC) forms hypochlorous acid when dissolved in water. It is available as powder or tablets. NaDCC powder has 60% available chlorine; NaDCC tablets contain 1.5 g available chlorine per tablet. Advantages: NaDCC does not decompose as quickly as sodium or calcium hypochlorite. Tablets are easy to use for measuring. Disadvantages: More expensive than sodium or calcium hypchlorite. Like all chlorine compounds, they may corrode metal with prolonged exposure (>20 minutes) to concentrations greater than 0.5% unless thoroughly rinsed.

One of these household water treatment technologies is sodium dichloroisocyanurate (NaDCC) tablets, an alternative to sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) solution, which is produced and distributed in many countries for water treatment. Both NaDCC tablets and NaOCl solution disinfect water by releasing free available chlorine in the form of hypochlorous acid, which is an effective microbicide against a wide range of bacteria, viruses, and parasites. Although NaOCl releases all its free available chlorine immediately, NaDCC releases half of its free available chlorine initially, leaving ¡°reservoir chlorine¡± that is released once the original free available chlorine has been used up. NaDCC tablets' reservoir chlorine may be especially advantageous when water is subject to high organic loads, as is common in resource-poor and remote settings

Local:
Triazine is the chemical species of six-membered heterocyclic ring compound with three nitrogens replacing carbon-hydrogen units in the benzene ring structure. The names of the three isomers indicate which of the carbon-hydrogen units on the benzene ring position of the molecule have been replaced by nitrogens, called 1,2,3-triazine, 1,2,4-triazine, and 1,3,5-triazine respectively. Symmetrical 1,3,5-triazine is the common. Triazines are prepared from 2-azidocyclopropene through thermal rearrangement (1,2,3-triazine), from 1,2-dicarbonyl compound with amidrazone by condensation reaction (1,2,4-triazine) and from cyanic acid amide by trimerization (1,3,5-triazine). Pyridine is the aromatic nitrogen heterocycle compound having only one nitrogen, and diazines are with 2 nitrogen atoms and tetrazines are with 4 nitrogen atoms on the benzene ring system. Triazines are weak base. Triazines have much weaker resonance energy than  benzene, so nucleophilic substitution is preferred than electrophilic substitution. Triazines are basic structure of herbicides, examples are amitole (CAS #: 61-82-5), atrazine (CAS #: 1912-24-9), cyanazine (CAS #: 21725-46-2), simazine (CAS #: 122-34-9), trietazine (CAS #: 1912-26-1). Large volume of triazines are used in  the manufacture of resin modifiers such as melamine and benzoguanamine.  Melamine (1,3,5-Triazine-2,4,6-triamine) is reacted with formaldehyde to from a very durable thermoset resin. Benzoguanamine (2,4-Diamino-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazine) is used to increase thermoset properties of alkyd, acrylic and formaldehyde resins. Triazines are also useful as chromophore groups in colorants and Chlorine attached in Triazine compounds undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions well with with hydroxyl groups in cellulose fibres. Some triazine family compounds are used in pharmaceutical industry as coupling agent for the synthesis of peptide in solid phase as well as solution and as side chain of antibiotics. Triazine compounds are used in formulating bactericide and fungicide. They are used as  preservatives in oil field applications. They are used as disinfectant, industrial deodorant and biocide in water treatment. They are used as a bleaching agents.

Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate is a stabilised chlorine donor containing cyanuric acid and used as a disinfectant, industrial deodorant and biocide in water treatment. It is used in detergents as a sanitizers.

HAZARD OVERVIEW

Oxidizer: Contact with combustible/organic material may cause fire. Risk of explosion by shock, friction, fire or other sources of ignition. Harmful if swallowed. Irritating to eyes, respiratory system and skin. Contact with acids liberates toxic gas. Very toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF CYANURIC ACID

• Cyanic acid: H-N=C=O or H-O-C¡ÕN
• Fulminic acid: (H-C=N-O) or H-C¡ÕN-O
• Isocyanic acid: H-N=C=O
• Cyanuric acid: HOC(NCOH)₂N
• Biuret: (NH₂)CO)₂ NH

Cyanic acid hydrolyses to ammonia and carbon dioxide in water. The salts and esters of cyanic acid are cyanates. But esters of normal cyanic acid are not known. The salts and esters of isocyanic acid are isocyanates. The isocyanate group reacts with the hydroxyl functional group to form a urethane linkage. Diisocyanates (or polyisocyanates) are monomers for polyurethane production. Polyurethane is made from a variety of diisocyanates in conjunction with polyether and polyester polyols as co-reactants by addition polymerization which needs at least two -N=C=O groups. Polyurethanes are widely used in the manufacture of flexible and rigid foams, fibres, coatings, and elastomers. If isocyanate monomer is polymerized with amine group, polyurea is produced. Cyanates (or Isocyanates) are readily reacts with various form of amine (including ammonia, primary-, secondary-amines, amides and ureas) and hydroxyl functional group. They are used in the synthesis for the target molecules such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, textile softener, lubricants and industrial disinfectants. They can convert to polycyclic compounds such as hydantoins and imidazolons. They are used as plastic additives and as heat treatment salt formulations for metals.
