Tosylchloramide

Tosylchloramide (CAS 144-86-5), commercially recognized as Chloramine-T, is an active chlorine-releasing compound used as a biocide, disinfectant, and bleaching agent.

Where is Tosylchloramide used?

• Water treatment: disinfection of potable water
• Cooling systems and process water: stable chlorine release over time
• Pharmaceutical manufacturing: reagent for radiolabeling proteins and peptides, particularly in iodination procedures for diagnostic compound production
• Industrial and institutional cleaning: sanitizers and disinfectants for food-contact surface treatment, healthcare facility hygiene and veterinary disinfection
• Textile and paper processing: bleaching agent where controlled whitening without fiber degradation is a requirement
• It delivers controlled oxidative action for processes requiring precise antimicrobial performance without the handling challenges of elemental chlorine.

Good to know: Active chlorine content is a key specification buyers should confirm, as it directly affects dosing and product performance in final formulations. Proper storage in cool, dry conditions is recommended to maintain the stability and efficacy of the active chlorine content.
