How Our Products Work

The Science of Aquatabs

HOCl is the biocidal agent. When added to water it becomes a neutral solution that pathogens allow to penetrate the cell wall. It has a similar structure to water and because of this, it easily penetrates bacterium cell wall.

The HOCl active disinfectant is measured as available chlorine. 50% of this total available chlorine is actually present as “free” available chlorine, while the other 50% is “combined” in the form of mono– or dichloroisocyanurate.

  • The ratio of “free” and “combined” available chlorine always remains at 50:50 equilibrium

  • As “free available” chlorine is used up (e.g. by organic matter, microorganisms, etc) the balance is disturbed

  • Part of the “combined” available chlorine is then “freed” to restore the 50:50 ratio

  • This happens until all the “combined” available chlorine is used up


The impact of this is important, because this means that the water is kept safe right to the last drop. This is because the balance between available chlorine and combined chlorine is always kept in equilibrium and there is always chlorine available to tackle microorganisms, etc.
