Hydrogen Peroxide – H2O2

This page hydrogen peroxide  ( H2O2 ) or perhydroxy acid or  oxygenated water , suitable detection tools – hydrogen peroxide detector – and appropriate respiratory protective equipment – ​​provides information on self-contained breathing apparatus and supplied-air respirator.

Hydrogen peroxide ( H2O2 ) – oxygenated water also known as – in paper mills and textile industry bleach It is a widely used gas. Disinfectant properties Therefore, this gas is used for sterilization in laboratories, packaging disinfection in the food industry, and to disinfect contact lenses or produce bactericidal products in the pharmaceutical industry.

Health effects of hydrogen peroxide

Hydrogen peroxide is the most liquid form oxygenated water Known for . Whether in liquid or gaseous form, this substance is colorless and odorless. H2O2 is corrosive and when inhaled (R20) or is harmful if swallowed (R22) and may cause severe burns (R35). Although this gas does not have an explosive limit, heating to explosion (R5) and contact with flammable material to the fire (R8) may cause.

Highly concentrated solutions can cause serious damage to skin and eyes and significant irritation to the respiratory and digestive systems. Repeated exposure causes abnormal skin discoloration and graying of hair. To date, no association with potential carcinogenic effects or damage to reproductive function has been found.

hydrogen peroxide detector and H2O2 sensor

Since H2O2 is colorless and odorless, there is only one A hydrogen peroxide monitor can accurately measure concentrations of this highly toxic gas. Portable or fixed ppm or ppb hydrogen peroxide detection systems or devices are recommended .

hydrogen peroxide respiratory protection – H2O2

Hydrogen peroxide is poisonous and poses a choking risk. Therefore, for long-term applications, open-circuit self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or air fed respirator It is recommended that you wear appropriate hydrogen peroxide respirator such as .
