What is 1,3,5-Trichloroisocyanuric Acid (TCCA)?

2025-07-28

1,3,5-Trichloroisocyanuric Acid (TCCA) is a highly efficient disinfectant compound that occupies an important position in the field of disinfection with its strong bactericidal power and wide applicability. Its stability and ease of use are its core advantages. It can quickly kill bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms in a variety of scenarios, while taking into account operational safety and environmental adaptability.

1,3,5-Trichloroisocyanuric Acid (TCCA)

The core mechanism of the disinfection principle

When dissolved in water, it slowly releases hypochlorous acid, which can destroy the cell membrane and protein structure of microorganisms, prevent their reproduction and completely kill them, and has significant effects on bacteria, fungi, viruses, etc. Compared with traditional disinfectants, TCCA has a high effective chlorine content and stable release. It can maintain the disinfection concentration for a long time and reduce the frequency of repeated additions. It is especially suitable for scenarios that require continuous disinfection. Its disinfection process is not affected by small fluctuations in water temperature and pH value, and can maintain stable bactericidal efficiency under different water quality conditions.

Wide adaptation of application scenarios

In water treatment, it can be used for the disinfection of swimming pool water and industrial circulating water, effectively controlling algae growth and microbial contamination, and keeping the water clean; in the field of medical and health care, it is suitable for the disinfection of environmental surfaces and medical devices, and its broad bactericidal spectrum can cope with a variety of pathogens; in agricultural production, it can be used for seed disinfection, livestock and poultry breeding environment disinfection, etc., to reduce the risk of disease and pest transmission. This multi-scenario adaptability stems from its stable killing effect on different microorganisms, and it is easy to adjust the concentration according to demand.

Safe balance of usage characteristics

TCCA solid form is easy to store and transport, not easy to volatilize, reducing the risk of exposure to volatiles during operation; when used, it can be dissolved and diluted, without the need for complex proportioning processes, reducing the difficulty of operation. At the same time, when used reasonably, it has little impact on the environment, and the degradation products have a low burden on the ecosystem, which meets the requirements of "high efficiency and low residue" in the field of modern disinfection. However, it is still necessary to follow the specifications when using it, avoid direct contact with the skin and mucous membranes, and ensure safe operation.

Key elements of quality control

The effective chlorine content of high-purity products is stable, the disinfection effect is more reliable, and there are fewer impurities, which can reduce the potential impact on the disinfection object. The precise control of the raw material ratio and reaction temperature during the production process directly affects the dissolution rate of the product and the stability of the release of effective ingredients. High-quality products will undergo strict testing to ensure that they are not easy to absorb moisture and agglomerate during storage, maintain good performance, and extend the shelf life.

Leache Chem LTD. focuses on the research and development and production of this product. The company focuses on the optimization of production processes and quality control to ensure that the products have stable effective chlorine content and good solubility, which can meet the disinfection needs of different scenarios. The TCCA products it provides take into account both efficient disinfection and safe use, providing reliable support for disinfection work in water treatment, medical and health, agriculture and other fields, and helping related industries to achieve safe and efficient production operations.
