Sodium chlorite is a salt-based chemical that also features the element chlorine. It has several practical uses and is very similar to sodium chlorate, a common food additive. Most people interact with sodium chlorite frequently but do not realize it, because the chemical is rarely interacted with in large portions. While not dangerous in small amounts, large doses of sodium chlorite can be dangerous.

Sodium chlorite is the product of three elements: sodium (Na), chlorine (Cl) and oxygen. In each molecule, one sodium atom and one chlorine atom bind with two oxygen atoms. The chemical equation for this composition is NaClO2. It is found in solid form as a white powder and is also water-soluble. Under high heat, it can be explosive.

One of the primary uses of sodium chlorite is as a oxidizer. It is helpful in bleaching various types of materials, such as wood, oils, and other textile products. It can help deactivate many types of poisons by interacting with them and changing their chemical composition. The oxidizing powers of sodium chlorite also make it a useful pesticide and herbicide.

It is widely used in textile, printing and dyeing, food and other industries.

The global sodium chlorite market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 5.2% from 2016 to 2020. Based on the regions, North America controls the entire market, occupies major market share, Asia-Pacific will be the fastest growing market.
