Product Overview
Trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA), also known as symclosene or trichloro-s-triazinetrione, is a chlorine-releasing disinfectant with an available chlorine content of ≥90%. In granular form (0.5 – 2.0 mm mesh range), TCCA combines the handling convenience of a dry solid with rapid solubility and sustained chlorine release. It is recognised globally as a safe, effective, and cost-efficient alternative to liquid chlorine and calcium hypochlorite for water treatment applications.
Great Spring TCCA Granular meets the requirements of GB 10666, ISO 7201, and ANSI/NSF Standard 60 (upon request), ensuring suitability for potable water and recreational water applications in international markets.
