Stabilizer CL - Chlorine Additive & Stabilizer

Chlorine Additive and Stabilizer to prolong shelf life of bleach and chlorinated detergents

STABILIZER CL is a high-performance chlorine additive & stabilizer designed to improve the stability and shelf life of chlorinated alkaline detergents and other bleach-based solutions. Its proprietary formulation helps to slow natural degradation of available chlorine and can extend usable shelf life by up to 33%, helping your customers and distributors reduce product waste, minimize off-spec batches, and maintain reliable cleaning performance over time.

By controlling reactive impurities, including trace heavy metals that can accelerate degradation and cause discolouration in chlorinated solutions, STABILIZER CL keeps chlorinated formulations clearer, more consistent, and more effective throughout their intended lifespan.

With a very small dilution of only 0.25%, STABILIZER CL delivers exceptional performance at a highly economical cost-in-use.

Chlorine & Chlorinated Detergents FAQ

Why does bleach turn dark or black over time?

Chlorinated alkaline detergents and other bleach / sodium hypochlorite based products can darken or discolor as they begin to break down. This often happens when available chlorine reacts with trace metals or other impurities in the solution. Over time, these reactions lead to color changes and a drop in chlorine strength (concentration). STABILIZER CL helps limit these reactions, keeping bleach clearer and more stable during storage.

What causes chlorine solutions to lose strength?

Chlorine naturally degrades through exposure to heat, light, pH drift, and with the presence of impurities such as heavy metals. Even very small amounts of contaminants can accelerate this breakdown, and the chances increase when blended with caustic materials. STABILIZER CL slows these pathways of degradation, helping maintain available chlorine for longer periods of time.

How can I extend the shelf life of my bleach based or chlorinated product?

Using a chlorine stabilizer is one of the most effective ways to preserve product strength. STABILIZER CL is formulated to reduce chlorine loss and minimize reactions that cause discoloration or off-spec batches. When used as directed, it can increase final product shelf life by up to 33%.

How much Stabilizer CL do I need to use?

Most formulations require approximately 0.25% of the total blend. This low dilution rate makes STABILIZER CL extremely cost-effective while still delivering strong protection against chlorine degradation and contaminations.

Is Stabilizer CL compatible with standard bleach based detergent formulations?

Yes – STABILIZER CL is designed to integrate easily into typical sodium hypochlorite detergent mixtures and chlorinated alkaline detergent blends. It does not interfere with normal performance (in most cases it will actually improve end user performance!) and is suitable for a wide range of industrial and institutional applications.
