Sodium perborate monohydrate is a white, crystalline powder widely used as a bleaching agent. It is a stable compound that releases oxygen when dissolved in water, making it effective for cleaning and disinfection purposes. Sodium perborate is less aggressive than chlorine-based bleaches. Compared to sodium perborate tetrahydrate, the monohydrate form contains a higher percentage of active oxygen, which enhances its efficiency as a bleaching agent.
