General Market Information:

Fluorescence quenchers, bleaching agents/stabilizers, and optical brighteners are commonly used in the sanitary market to improve the performance and appearance of household and personal care products, such as laundry detergents, fabric softeners, and cleaning agents.

Fluorescence quenchers are chemical compounds that can reduce the fluorescent light emitted by optical brighteners in laundry detergents and fabric softeners. This can prevent the appearance of a blue or yellow glow under certain lighting conditions and ensure that the colors of the fabrics remain true to their original shades. Fluorescence quenchers can also help to improve the efficacy of cleaning agents by reducing interference from optical brighteners and other additives.

Bleaching agents and stabilizers are chemical compounds that can enhance the bleaching and disinfecting properties of cleaning agents, such as bleach and hydrogen peroxide. Bleaching agents such as sodium hypochlorite and hydrogen peroxide can oxidize and remove stains, while stabilizers such as tetrasodium pyrophosphate and sodium silicate can prevent the degradation of the bleach and improve its shelf life. Bleaching agents and stabilizers are particularly important in the sanitary market, where cleanliness and hygiene are essential.

Optical brighteners are chemical compounds that can absorb and emit UV light, enhancing the whiteness and brightness of fabrics and surfaces. Optical brighteners are commonly used in laundry detergents and fabric softeners to make white and light-colored fabrics appear brighter and fresher. Optical brighteners can also be used in cleaning agents to improve the appearance of surfaces, such as porcelain, ceramics, and plastics.

Overall, the use of fluorescence quenchers, bleaching agents/stabilizers, and optical brighteners can improve the performance and aesthetics of household and personal care products, while also ensuring their safety and environmental compatibility.
