gtitan56v8 14 Report post Posted May 13, 2009 Ok, chlorine is 12% sodium hypochlorite, right?.... I went to my local pool store, pretty large supplier, and looked at 20 different kinds of chlorine and none of them had the words sodium hypochlorite anywhere in their composition. What am I missing here? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What am I missing here? Thanks You were most likely finding Calcium hypochlorite. Sodium Hypochlorite is what you will find in liquid bleach. 12% bleach people refer to is Sodium instead of Calcium although either works from what I have heard but most prefer the Sodium version.
