Potassium peroxymonosulfate CAS 70693-62-8 , also known as MPS, KMPS, potassium monopersulfate, and potassium caroate is a white powder and non-chlorine oxidizer, whose chemical formula is KHSO5. It is a strong oxidant with an oxidation potential of similar magnitude to that of chlorine. This product is widely used in swimming pools to keep the water clear, thus allowing chlorine in pools to work to sanitize the water rather than clarify the water, resulting in less chlorine needed to keep pools clean. Potassium monopersulfate is marketed for use in the treatment of water in swimming pools, spas, and hot tubs.
