Product Information

• Name: Sodium percarbonate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Sodium percarbonate is a chemical compound that has a high degree of chemical stability. It is a white, crystalline solid with an appearance similar to table salt. Sodium percarbonate can be used for wastewater treatment by reacting with the hydrogen peroxide in wastewater to produce carbon dioxide and sodium sulfate. The reaction mechanism is based on the oxidation of p-hydroxybenzoic acid by hydrogen peroxide. Sodium percarbonate can also be used as an oxidizing agent in organic synthesis reactions, such as ester hydrolysis, nitro reduction, and decomposition of boron compounds. Optimum concentrations range from 1% to 3%.
