Abstract
Novel compositions comprising calcium hypochlorite and a proportion of a polyacrylic acid compound have been produced. the compositions provide accurately controlled concentrations of available chlorine to bodies of water such as swimming pools by reducing the solubility off the calcium hypochlorite. In addition, when employing dispensers for water soluble chemicals in treating very hard or highly alkaline water, inhibition of scale formation and prevention of scale build-up in the dispenser is achieved when the novel compositions are used.
