Can SDIC Be Used To Wash Tableware in The Dishwasher?

  As living standards rise, so does the demand for dishwashers. So, as a versatile disinfectant, can sodium dichloroisocyanurate be used as a detergent in dishwashers to clean tableware? We will reveal the answer shortly following our analysis.

• Properties of Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate

  Sodium dichloroisocyanurate, also known as SDIC, NaDCC, or dichloro, is available in three physical forms: white powder, granules, and tablets. No matter what shape or size you need, we will provide a solution that meets your expectations and We can also provide you with samples.

  Fast-dissolving stabilized chlorine,a good choice for treatment of swimming pool water and driking water;silkworm, poultry, fishery (prawn, shrimp& fish) and livestock; wool shrink resisting. It also acts as a bleaching agent, whitening materials while disinfecting them, such as textile bleaching, and clean the industrial circulating water.

  This is our best-selling product, which we export to nearly all of the major markets listed above. As a result, we are very familiar with it and handle it with great care. We are not in the business of short-term deals; our company's philosophy is based on long-term partnerships. So please trust our quality!

• Is sodium dichloroisocyanurate suitable for use in dishwashers?

  To determine its suitability, we need to comprehensively consider the properties of sodium dichloroisocyanurate, the materials of the tableware and the dishwasher, as well as a comparison between commercially available dishwasher detergents and sodium dichloroisocyanurate.

1. Corrosiveness: Chlorine can corrode the stainless steel interior of the dishwasher as well as stainless steel tableware, whereas sodium dichloroisocyanurate has an active chlorine content of 60%.
2. Dedicated Detergent: Dishwasher-specific detergents are all-in-one solutions that not only deliver powerful cleaning performance but are also safe, eco-friendly, and leave virtually no residue.
3. Alternative: The sterilizing and disinfecting properties of sodium dichloroisocyanurate can be achieved through the dishwasher's high-temperature cycle.

  Therefore, sodium dichloroisocyanurate is not suitable for use in dishwashers. However, as a stable and highly effective chlorine-based disinfectant, sodium dichloroisocyanurate is widely used in other household applications.

• Fruits and Vegetables

  Chlorine (sodium hypochlorite) is one of the most widely used disinfectants for fruits, vegetables, and fresh-cut produce. It preserves quality by reducing microbial counts and controlling microbial growth. A 5-minute soak in a 100 mg/L solution is recommended.

• Tableware

  This raises a question: why can't it be used to wash and disinfect tableware in a dishwasher, yet it can be used to disinfect tableware directly? Here are the reasons:

1. Sodium dichloroisocyanurate is highly effective, low in toxicity, and has strong bactericidal properties.
2. At low concentrations and with short contact times, it does not significantly affect the tableware.
3. It is simple to use and convenient, capable of disinfecting large quantities of tableware in a single treatment.
4. It is suitable for a wide range of applications and is safe for both household and commercial use.

  The operating environment for sodium dichloro in dishwashers is relatively complex. Factors such as the materials used in the dishwasher and tableware, high temperatures, and the enclosed space must be considered to determine whether they will affect the performance of SDIC and whether its cleaning effectiveness will be compromised.

• Directions for Use

  The standard for disinfecting common tableware is to dilute sodium dichloro to a concentration of 200 mg per liter of water (60% solution) and soak the tableware for 5 minutes. After use, rinse thoroughly with plenty of water until there is no chlorine odor. If you have any questions about how to use the product or the dosage, please feel free to contact us. We will provide you with professional advice and guidance.

• Drinking Water

  Common disinfectants for daily drinking water include bleaching powder and sodium dichloroisocyanurate.

  Sodium dichloroisocyanurate has an effective chlorine content of up to 60%, offering not only strong disinfection capabilities but also greater stability and safety.

  It produces lower levels of chloroform and carbon tetrachloride (which can damage liver function) compared to bleaching powder tablets, making it a highly reliable disinfectant for drinking water. A concentration of 6.5 mg/L is recommended for a 30-minute treatment.
