PRODUCT NAME: Hydrogen Peroxide (40 to 60%) ALTERNATE PRODUCT NAME(S): Durox® Reg. & LR 50%, Oxypure® 50%, Semiconductor Reg & Seg 50%, Standard 50%, Technical 50%, Chlorate Grade 50%, Super D® 50% GENERAL USE: Durox® 50% Reg. and LR - meets the Food Chemical Codex requirements for aseptic packaging and other food related applications. Oxypure® 50% - certified by NSF to meet NSF/ANSI Standard 60 requirements for drinking water treatment. Standard 50% - most suitable for industrial bleaching, processing, pollution abatement and general oxidation reactions. Semiconductor Reg. & Seg. 50% - conforms to ACS and Semi Specs., for wafer etching and cleaning, and applications requiring low residues. Super D® 50% - meets US Pharmacopoeia specifications for 3% topical solutions when diluted with proper quality water. While manufactured to the USP standards or purity and to FMC’s demanding ISO 9002 quality standards, FMC does not claim that its Hydrogen Peroxide is manufactured in accordance with all pharmaceutical cGMP conditions. Technical 50% - essentially free of inorganic metals, suitable for chemical synthesis. Chlorate Grade 50% - specially formulated for use in chlorate manufacture or processing. SynergOx™ - combination of a proprietary catalyst and 50% hydrogen peroxide, at the point of use, for environmental applications….. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES RELEASE NOTES: Dilute with a large volume of water and hold in a pond or diked area until hydrogen peroxide decomposes. Hydrogen peroxide may be decomposed by adding sodium metabisulfite or sodium sulfite after diluting to about 5%. Dispose according to methods outlined for waste disposal. Combustible materials exposed to hydrogen peroxide should be immediately submerged in or rinsed with large amounts of water to ensure that all hydrogen peroxide is removed. Residual hydrogen peroxide that is allowed to dry (upon evaporation hydrogen peroxide can concentrate) on organic materials such as paper, fabrics, cotton, leather, wood or other combustibles can cause the material to ignite and result in a fire. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE HANDLING: Wear chemical splash-type monogoggles and full-face shield, impervious clothing, such as rubber, PVC, etc., and rubber or neoprene gloves and shoes. Avoid cotton, wool and leather. Avoid excessive heat and contamination. Contamination may cause decomposition and generation of oxygen gas which could result in high pressures and possible container rupture. Hydrogen peroxide should be stored only in vented containers and transferred only in a prescribed manner (see FMC Technical Bulletins). Never return unused hydrogen peroxide to original container, empty drums should be triple rinsed with water before discarding. Utensils used for handling hydrogen peroxide should only be made of glass, stainless steel, aluminum or plastic.

  1. i need hydrogen peroxide 50 % msds

  2. Hydrogen peroxide is widely used; however because we all have hydrogen peroxide in out bathroom cabinets, many people do not realize the dangers of this chemical. Hydrogen peroxide is a strong oxidizing agent, stronger than chlorine and even low concentrations of the vapor are dangerous. Hydrogen peroxide is a primary irritant, the hazard increasing with concentration. Contact with the liquid can cause bleaching the skin and if not washed off, chemical burns especially if the concentration is high. Liquid hydrogen peroxide is in equilibrium with hydrogen peroxide vapor. OSHA has set the occupational permissible concentration for the vapor to only 1 ppm calculated over 8 hours [29 CFR 1910.1000 Tbl. Z-1]. The website chemdaq.com/gases/Hydrogen_Peroxide.html summarizes the health risks of hydrogen peroxide vapor as published by various governmental agencies and occupational safety organizations. Most safety minded employers using hydrogen peroxide will have a continuous gas monitor, to ensure that their employees are not exposed to hazardous concentrations… Before using hydrogen peroxide, users should familiarize themselves with the potential risks of hydrogen peroxide and the methods and equipment needed to use it safely.
