Liquid compound of water and oxygen
Hydrogen Peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), one of the most versatile and environmentally friendly chemical compounds, is one of the cleanest chemicals, dissolving only in oxygen and water. This makes it, in diluted solution in water, the ecological alternative of classic chemicals for consumer use and is used in high concentration as green fuel for rockets.
Huge range of hydrogen peroxide qualities
As a leading manufacturer and supplier of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) with more than 100 years of experience in peroxygen chemistry, Evonik Active Oxygens is able to offer high quality peroxides in a broad range of concentrations and purities in its production line.
Our aqueous solutions deliver exceptional value for our customers in various industries such as electronics, pulp and paper production, hygiene and disinfection, chemical synthesis, mining, agriculture, water and wastewater treatment or pharmaceuticals and health care.
The versatility of hydrogen peroxide uses is evidenced by the variety of oxidation potentials and pH ranges in which it can act as an oxidizer. In the acid pH range, for example, uncatalyzed hydrogen peroxide is a moderate oxidizing agent but when catalyzed with iron, it becomes a powerful oxidizing agent. In the alkaline pH range, peroxide hydrogen can compete with hypochlorite as an oxidizer.
The Production Process of Hydrogen Peroxide
What is hydrogen peroxide used for?
Our broad product portfolio is ranging from standard to super pure and specialty grades, specially developed for various applications. H2O2 can be used as a bleach in tooth whitening products, food processing, and industrial laundry; to disinfect surfaces, medical devices, and waste water; or as an oxidizer in chemical synthesis and electronics manufacturing processes.
