Hydrogen Peroxide, 50% Solution (GFS 43991/43993/43994)

• Concentrated hydrogen peroxide: This is a 50% hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution, with a stated concentration range of 45-55%. Hydrogen peroxide is a strong, versatile oxidizer used across cleaning, disinfection, bleaching, water and wastewater treatment, and a wide range of oxidation chemistry in both laboratory and industrial settings. At 50%, it is far more concentrated than the dilute household product, delivering substantial oxidizing power for demanding applications.
• Where the concentrated grade is used: The higher concentration makes this grade efficient for industrial and laboratory tasks that would need impractically large volumes of dilute peroxide: treating process and waste water, driving oxidation reactions, bleaching, and heavy-duty cleaning and disinfection. Because hydrogen peroxide breaks down ultimately into water and oxygen, it is often favored where a powerful oxidizer is needed without leaving persistent chemical residues behind.
• Verified identity: The LabPro listing gives CAS number 7722-84-1 and formula H2O2, with UN number 2014 and the DOT shipping name Hydrogen Peroxide, Aqueous Solutions. The product is offered in 500 mL, 4 L, and 20 L sizes. Confirming the concentration range and identifiers is worthwhile before use, since the appropriate handling and dilution depend on knowing the exact strength of the peroxide being used.
• Hazards, storage, and retesting: At this concentration hydrogen peroxide is a hazardous oxidizer that can be corrosive and reactive. It must be handled with appropriate protective equipment, kept away from incompatible and combustible materials, and stored in its original vented container away from heat and light. Because peroxide slowly decomposes, the manufacturer recommends periodically retesting the concentration. The Safety Data Sheet should always be reviewed before use.
