Buy hydrogen peroxide 3% (oxygen water)
Looking to buy 3% hydrogen peroxide for professional use? Hydrogen peroxide is an aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) intended as a versatile cleaning agent with an oxidizing effect. Its oxidizing properties make it suitable for cleaning stains, bleaching surfaces, and removing things like blood stains and discoloration. Many stains on clothing or wood can sometimes be refreshed by applying this product carefully.

What is Hydrogen Peroxide 3% used for?
Hydrogen peroxide 3% is often used as an oxidizer/bleaching agent for cleaning. This 3% solution is used to treat discoloration on suitable surfaces, for example, caused by contamination or aging. It can also be used to treat stains in textiles without the use of harsh chemicals like bleach . For example, it can be used to remove blood stains from clothing . This is only possible if the fabric is tested beforehand for colorfastness and material resistance.
In laboratories it is used as a reactive substance in simple oxidation steps and supporting activities, depending on the process and the required concentration.
Instructions for use for hydrogen peroxide 3%
Press and turn the cap to open the child-resistant seal. Pour a small amount of 3% hydrogen peroxide onto the stain and gently rub it with a brush over the stain or surface you wish to treat. Repeat this process, continuing to rub gently until the stain fades or is removed. Always use the product with caution and test on an inconspicuous area first.
Chemical properties
Hydrogen peroxide decomposes slowly into water and oxygen, and light and heat can accelerate this process. The solution is completely miscible with water and acts as a mild oxidizer.
Storage and use
Store in a cool, dark, and tightly sealed place to minimize decomposition. Prevent contamination (including contact with certain metals) and wear appropriate PPE. When applying to textiles or finishes, always test in an inconspicuous area first.
