Disinfectant Material Industrial Monopersulfate Compound CAS 70693-62-8 For Swine Fever

Potassium peroxymonosulfate (also known as MPS, potassium monopersulfate, potassium caroate, the trade names Caroat and Oxone, and as non-chlorine shock in the pool and spa industry) is widely used as an oxidizing agent. It is the potassium salt of peroxymonosulfuric acid.

The triple salt 2KHSO5*KHSO4*K2SO4 (known by the tradename Oxone) is a form with higher stability. The standard electrode potential for this compound is +1.81 V with a half reaction generating the hydrogen sulfate (pH=0).

When chlorine is used to oxidize pool water, it reacts with bather and other organic wastes, which are primarily nitrogen based compounds, to form chloramines. These by-products have a foul odor and are considered unpleasant. KMPS also reacts with the nitrogen-based compounds introduced by bathers, but because it does not contain chlorine, does not form chloramines in its oxidation process.

KMPS oxidizes chloramines as well as urea, the active ingredient in urine. It reacts very slowly with ammonia. KMPS's lifetime in pool water depends on the quantity of oxidizable material. Unstabilized chlorine is more than 90 percent decomposed within a few hours, while KMPS is about 23 percent decomposed per hour.
