Chlorine is then combined with other elements to produce a variety of inorganic chemical products such as hydrochloric acid, and sodium hypochlorite which is used to sterilize tap water. We also manufacture high-purity inorganic chemical products, which are employed in the production of such leading-edge industrial products as semiconductors and liquid crystals.
