Why you need oxygen bleach
Oxygen bleaches are made on the basis of sodium percarbonate. When this substance comes into contact with water, a chemical reaction occurs with the active release of oxygen. A lot of bubbles “embed” in the contaminants and as if push them out.
Unlike chlorine bleaches, oxygen bleaches do not act so aggressively, so the range of their application is quite extensive. With these means you can safely remove stains on both white and colored fabrics, remove stale grease and soot from dishes and kitchen utensils, wash bathroom fixtures, furniture, tiles and other surfaces. This product also enhances the effect of other detergents (e.g., laundry detergents), helps to get rid of fungus, eliminates unpleasant odors, and clears clogs in pipes.
Bleaches with sodium percarbonate work in barely warm water. But as the temperature of the liquid rises, the product becomes more effective, due to the more active release of oxygen.
What you need to remember when using oxygen bleach
– Despite the versatility of the product, not all materials can be cleaned with it. Do not use oxygen bleach to clean items made of natural and artificial leather, suede, nubuck, wool, silk, copper, aluminum, as well as things filled with down and feather.
– The concentration of sodium percarbonate and other auxiliary substances in the composition of the bleach may vary depending on the manufacturer. Therefore, read the instructions carefully and use the product in the recommended dosage.
– If you are not sure whether the product is suitable for a particular product, conduct a test. Try cleaning a small area of the item with oxygen bleach and see the effect.
– Before using bleach for clothes and linens, carefully read the information on the product labels. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations and do not use too hot water when washing or soaking to avoid spoiling the fabric.
