Hydrogen Peroxide 10% ACS Grade

Product Overview

Hydrogen Peroxide 10% ACS Grade (H2O2) is a high-purity, colorless liquid oxidizer. As an ACS Reagent Grade chemical, it is manufactured to meet or exceed the stringent specifications established by the American Chemical Society. This ensures extremely low levels of impurities, making it the standard choice for analytical laboratories, delicate chemical synthesis, and quality control applications where trace metal contamination must be minimized.

Also known as Peroxide or Hydrogen Dioxide, this 10% solution provides a stable yet effective concentration for routine titrations and oxidation reactions. It serves as a critical reagent in wet chemical analysis and is widely used in electronic manufacturing for oxidative cleaning processes. Alliance Chemical supplies this product in packaging ranging from laboratory quantities (1 Quart) to bulk industrial volumes (330 Gallon Totes).

Safety Precautions

Hydrogen Peroxide is a strong oxidizer. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep away from combustible materials, reducing agents, and organic compounds to prevent hazardous reactions. Use only vented containers made of compatible materials such as HDPE or glass.

Personnel should wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including chemical-resistant gloves, splash goggles, and protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for comprehensive handling instructions, first aid measures, and disposal guidelines.
