Wikipedia

To bleach something is to remove or lighten its color; a \"bleach\" is a chemical that can produce these effects, often via oxidization. Common chemical bleaches include sodium hypochlorite, or \"chlorine bleach,\" and \"oxygen bleach,\" which contains hydrogen peroxide or a peroxide-releasing compound such as sodium perborate or sodium percarbonate. \"Bleaching powder\" is calcium hypochlorite. Bleaching may be a preliminary step in the process of dyeing.
