Hydrogen Peroxide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula H₂O₂ and CAS Number 7722-84-1. It is typically supplied as a clear, colourless liquid in aqueous solution at concentrations specified by the manufacturer. Its chemical properties and handling requirements vary significantly with concentration.

Hydrogen Peroxide is valued for its oxidising properties and ability to participate in a wide range of chemical reactions. Common laboratory applications include oxidation-reduction experiments, analytical chemistry procedures, chemical preparation, and research involving reactive oxygen compounds. It may also be used in selected cleaning, treatment, and industrial processes, depending on its concentration and grade.

Hydrogen Peroxide decomposes into water and oxygen, with decomposition potentially accelerated by heat, light, contamination, or contact with incompatible substances. Appropriate concentration, purity, and stabilisation specifications should therefore be selected according to the intended application.

KSFE Malaysia supplies laboratory chemicals and scientific products for research institutions, educational facilities, and general laboratory applications.

Safety Note: Hydrogen Peroxide is an oxidising substance that may cause eye, skin, or respiratory irritation, and concentrated solutions can cause severe burns and serious eye damage. It may intensify fire by promoting combustion of other materials. Avoid contact with combustible materials, reducing agents, incompatible metals, and other substances that may accelerate decomposition. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and handle the product in a suitable, well-ventilated area. Protect it from heat, direct sunlight, and contamination, and follow the supplier's safety data sheet (SDS) for handling, storage, and disposal.
