Molecular formula: H2O2
Hydrogen peroxide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula H2O2. Pure hydrogen peroxide is a light blue viscous liquid, which can be miscible with water in any proportion. It is a strong oxidant with unstable chemical properties. It is easy to decompose when heated, exposed to light, or in contact with heavy metal ions, rough surfaces, and other impurities, and has the risk of fire and explosion; Since there are two O's, the aqueous solution is commonly known as hydrogen peroxide, which is colorless and transparent. The industrial specifications are 27.5%, 30%, 35%, 50% and 70%. Hydrogen peroxide has increasingly become an important basic chemical. As an oxidant, bleach, disinfectant, deoxidizer, polymer initiator and cross-linking agent, it is widely used in three fields, including chemical industry, papermaking, electronics, food, medicine, textile, mining, agricultural waste processing and other industries, such as bleaching, chemical synthesis and environmental protection. PH is a factor affecting the stability of hydrogen peroxide, which is relatively stable when it is acidic, and the most stable when it is PH4 ± 0.5. Generally, phosphoric acid is used as the stabilizer. When PH is greater than 8, it will decompose violently. Hydrogen peroxide will decompose violently when encountering most metal impurities, so hydrogen peroxide needs to be transported in plastic drums (polyethylene or polytetrafluoroethylene), pure aluminum (purity greater than 99.5%) or stainless steel tankers. It is not suitable for long-distance transportation. At present, our production capacity is 300000 tons/year (27.5%) and 80000 tons/year (50%).
