Hydrogen peroxide, popularly called oxygenated water, is known as the simplest peroxide used in disinfectants. Hydrogen peroxide is an environmentally friendly oxidizing agent used in processes such as sterilization. It can be easily used in daily cleaning processes in appropriate concentrations.
Hydrogen peroxide is widely used as a biocide, especially in applications where its degradation into non-toxic by-products is important.
Oxidizing agents, particularly hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), are increasingly used in a number of medical, food and industrial applications as well as environmental applications such as water treatment. In the medical field, oxidizing agents are particularly useful for hard surface disinfection and high-level disinfection of medical devices.
Their main advantages are their broad spectrum activities, including activity against bacterial endospores, that they do not cause environmental toxicity, and that surface abrasiveness and odors are greatly reduced with different formulations.
The product types for which hydrogen peroxide can be used are stated as follows in the List of Substances Defined in Annex-A Product Type within the scope of the "Biocidal Products Regulation".
- Product Type 1: Human hygiene
- Product Type 2: Disinfectants and algicides not intended to be applied directly to humans or animals
- Product Type 3: Animal hygiene
- Product Type 4: Food and feed field
- Product type 5: Drinking water
- Product Type 6: Preserving products during storage. - Product Type 11: Preservatives for liquid coolant and processing systems
- Product Type 12: Slimicides
