Alcohol and 84 disinfectant become essential artifacts at home

When some friends go out

I have to spray after I go home

So you know when using disinfectant

Should I pay attention to something?

Question 1

Will alcohol and 84 disinfectant mix cause death?

Recently, some netizens posted that when a person wearing a mask sprayed with alcohol was sitting in an elevator in Panlongcheng District of Wuhan, 84 disinfectants were used to disinfect the elevator, which caused the poisonous gas "chlorine" produced by the disinfectant and alcohol to cause death.

After investigation, a similar warning has not occurred in the Panlongcheng District of Wuhan. The post is a rumor.

Then the question is coming

84 mix of disinfectant and alcohol

Can it really produce chlorine gas and cause death?

Authoritative answer

It can be explained with a very simple chemical knowledge. In order to stabilize hypochlorite, a small amount of NaOH will be added to the 84 disinfectant solution, which is strongly alkaline. In a highly alkaline environment, chlorine gas will not come out.

Since it will not, someone may ask: alcohol can be disinfected, 84 disinfectant can also be disinfected, then these two are mixed together, can they double the disinfection ability? (What are these ideas...)

The reality is cruel. Don’t think about doubling the disinfection ability. It is possible to weaken the disinfection ability, and even produce some toxic organic chlorides, so alcohol and 84 disinfectant cannot be mixed!

Of course, don’t mix alcohol with 84 disinfectant. The “most realistic reason” is: It’s shameful to waste!

According to the "New Coronavirus Infected Pneumonia Diagnosis and Treatment Program (Trial Version 5)" issued by the National Health and Health Commission, 75% ethanol and chlorine-containing disinfectants can effectively inactivate the virus.

Therefore, you can choose a disinfectant according to the actual situation and use it reasonably.

The use and precautions of alcohol and 84 disinfectant are really important. If you are not careful, disinfection may become "poisoning".

Question 2

How to use 84 disinfectant correctly?
