The global sodium hypochlorite market revenue was US$ 279.3 million in 2021. The global sodium hypochlorite market revenue is forecast to reach US$ 422.8 million by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2030.

Sodium hypochlorite is also known as liquid bleach. It consists of a sodium cation and a hypochlorite ion. In a long-term household chemical application, it is a highly reactive, volatile paler yellowish-green aqueous solution. Bleaching, sterilizing, germicidal, oxidizing, and disinfecting sodium hypochlorite is among the effects of sodium hypochlorite. The combination of chlorine gas and caustic soda produces sodium hypochlorite on a large scale. The powerful disinfectant properties of this ingredient make it a popular active ingredient in water treatment and cleaning solutions. In addition, it serves as a disinfectant that keeps swimming pools and drinking water safe and serves as a cleaning agent for veterinary, food processing, and odor elimination purposes. Paper & pulp and textile industries use it as a bleaching agent.
