MONOSODIUM CYANURIC ACID SLURRY

摘要

Disclosed is a stable gel-like slurry having a pH of about 6.5 to about 8.5 which is a mixture of water and about 20 to about 50 wt% sodium cyanurate. Also disclosed is a method of making a water-monosodium cyanurate hydrate gel-like slurry. A slurry is formed in water of about 20 to about 50 wt% cyanuric acid. Sodium hydroxide is added to the slurry in an amount of about 90 to about 100% of stoichiometric over a period of about 40 minutes. Water can be disinfected by adding to the water an amount of water-monosodium cyanuric hydrate gel-like slurry according to this invention equivalent to a concentration of cyanuric acid in the water of about 25 to about 150 ppm and an amount of a source of chlorine sufficient to maintain a concentration of chlorine in the water between about 0.1 and about 5.0 ppm.
