Sodium Chlorite Market Shares, Strategies and Forecast Worldwide, 2014 - 2020

Sodium chlorite is a white colored, odorless powder which is used in the production of chlorine dioxide. Chlorine dioxide is used in bleaching papers, textiles, pulps and it finds use in purification of water. Sodium chlorite is water soluble and slightly soluble in methanol and ethanol. The water purification systems in industries, hospitals, city municipal bodies make extensive use of sodium chlorite. Chlorine dioxide produced from sodium chlorite is FDA approved for water disinfection purposes. Anhydrous form of sodium chlorite is used commercially, as it is not hygroscopic and does not cake during storage. Acidified sodium chlorite is used widely as an anti microbial agent in hospitals and the food industry.

Chlorine dioxide produced from sodium chlorite finds minor application in sterilizing red blood cells prior to transfusion. It is also used in weed control applications. Besides, water purification, sodium chlorite is used in whitening paper and textiles as a bleaching agent. Sodium chlorite in combination with zinc chloride is used in mouthwash, clinical rinses, toothpastes and as preservative in eye drops. The use of chlorine dioxide, a derivative of sodium chlorite, helps in selective destruction of pathogenic bacteria, it is known to be non reactive on useful intestinal bacteria and organic matter such as food or body cells.

The growing healthcare and sanitation industry is a key driver for the market of sodium chlorite. Sodium chlorite is used as an anti microbial agent and disinfectant, owing to which it finds use in hospital operation theatres, waiting rooms and critical care units. Additionally, they are used in the food and poultry industry. Chlorine dioxide is used extensively in public water supplies as it is less harmful than the traditionally used chlorine for water purification.

This is due to the growing paper and pulp industries in these countries. Owing to this, China, South East Asia, Central and South America are the major producers and consumers of sodium chlorite and this trend is expected to continue within the forecast period. The growing demand for high thickness and bright papers is expected to augment the sales of sodium chlorite within the forecast period. DuPont is a major producer of sodium chlorite in North America. Adox and Headline are the two major brands of sodium chlorite manufactured by DuPont.
