text: The facts that in neutral or alkaline solutions, alkali chlorites are stable and their bleaching action is arrested, i.e. no chlorine dioxide is developed nor any other reaction takes place, as a decomposition of alkali chlorites occurs only in the presence of acids or other substances, suggested a bleaching method wherein the activation of the initially neutral or alkaline bleaching solution is effected only after it has been applied to the material to be bleached, by acidification.
