Abstract

Abstract Decomposition of chloroisocyanurates such as trichloroisocyanuric acid or alkali metal dichloroisocyanurates is inhibited by the presence of alkaline earth metal sulfates. The sulfates may be used in compositions with a solid chloroisocyanurate or they may be added separately, for example, to packages containing the chloroisocyanurate.
