Hypochlorous

Hypochlorous acid can also be used in place of hand sanitizer with no irritating side effects and does not cause hand dermatitis.

Hypochlorous acid (HClO) is a weak acid that forms when chlorine dissolves in water. RXSOL Hypochlorous acid is an electrochemically activated aqueous solution, it is a result of correlation of electrical voltages, chemical reactions, and mutual conversion of chemical and electrical energy, based on technology.

How it works?
Hypochlorous acid basically creates a hostile environment where microbes and viruses cannot thrive, so it mimics precisely the human immune system. hypochlorous acid is
based on Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl), which is one of the most potent and natural disinfectants around, with rapid and prolonged action.
Application
Uses of hypochlorous acid 
  • Hypochlorous Acid is used to convert alkenes to chlorohydrins.
  • Used in cosmetics such as baby products.
  • Used in swimming pools.
  • Used to generate sufficient quantities of safe disinfectant.
  • Used in marine sanitation devices to convert seawater into HOCl.
  • Used as a wound care agent.
  • Used to treat various infections in pets and humans.
  • hypochlorous acid can also be used in place of hand sanitizer with no irritating side effects and does not cause hand dermatitis.
Dose
Hypochlorous acid is a weak acid 
hypochlorous acid has the most reactive oxygen specie, most powerful oxidizing agent 100 percent safe for humans, chemical free, non-toxic and all-natural, 
 Hypochlorous acid has a temporary and mild chlorine smell that dissipates quickly, it is non-irritating, and it does not have poisonous side effects.
  • HOCl is the scientific formula for hypochlorous acid, a weak acid similar to that of a mild citrus juice. 
  • HOCl is made naturally by white blood cells in all mammals for healing and protection. 
  • HOCl is a powerful oxidant that is effective against invading bacteria, fungi, and viruses. 
  • Generating HOCl by running electricity through a solution of saltwater was discovered in 1970s. 
  • HOCl is now used in healthcare, food safety, water treatment, and general sanitation.
