- Effective antimicrobial properties
- Decomposes primarily to water and oxygen
- Suitable for high-purity processing requirements
Important Use Note
Food Grade does not mean the concentrated product is safe for direct consumption.
35% Hydrogen Peroxide is a concentrated oxidiser and requires professional industrial handling.
Storage
Store in manufacturer-approved, vented peroxide-compatible containers.
Protect from sunlight, heat, contamination, metals, reducing agents and incompatible organic materials.
Never return unused or contaminated peroxide to the original storage container.
