Hello, i am new on this forum so if i am posting in wrong section on forum i am sorry. I have a question from real life that i am searching for answer. While i was on vacation i was parking over water tank that is not hermeticaly closed and can be vented out. The water is regulary filled in tank that is about 10m3 of water. Water is desinfected every time when is filled with sodium dichloroisocyanurate 1.5g to 2g per m3. So my question is what is hapening with sodium dichloroisocyanurate in water does it form chlorine that evaporates and then form HCL that will couse rusting of car? Is my car subjected to rust now after parking for a week on that parking place? Thank you in advance and sorry for my english.

I wouldn't care much. Yes, definitely some chlorine is produced during dichloroisocyanurate decomposition, yes, it definitely can leave the solution, and yes, it is corrosive. But: the effect is probably not much worse than what your car can be exposed to either while driving during winter (salt on roads) or driving seaside roads (salt water spray).
