Overview
Hydrogen Peroxide (CAS 7722-84-1) is one of the disinfection & chlorination products Suraj Chemicals supplies to industrial, institutional and manufacturing buyers across India from our Chennai base. It is commonly used for textile, paper and pulp bleaching; disinfectant and sterilant; effluent treatment oxidant, among other applications in the disinfection & chlorination category. We pack Hydrogen Peroxide in carboys / drums as per order quantity, and can arrange bulk, drum or tanker quantities for larger requirements — full characteristics, applications and downloadable documentation are below, or you can request a quote directly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Hydrogen Peroxide?
Hydrogen Peroxide is supplied by Suraj Chemicals as colourless liquid, identified by CAS number 7722-84-1. It falls under our Disinfection & Chlorination range — see the Specification Sheet table above for its full characteristics.
What is Hydrogen Peroxide used for?
Typical applications include: Textile, paper and pulp bleaching; Disinfectant and sterilant; Effluent treatment oxidant.
How should Hydrogen Peroxide be stored and handled?
Store in a cool, dark, well-ventilated place away from reducing agents and metals — decomposes with heat/light.
What packaging and pack sizes does Suraj Chemicals supply Hydrogen Peroxide in?
Carboys / drums as per order quantity. Contact us if you need a different pack size, or a bulk/tanker quantity.
What is the shelf life of Hydrogen Peroxide?
Typically 3–6 months from date of manufacture when stored sealed, in a cool place away from direct sunlight and heat. Active content in hypochlorite / oxidising products declines gradually over time, so this is one to watch closely. As with any industrial chemical, request the current batch's manufacturing date and a fresh certificate of analysis for orders where exact remaining shelf life matters.
Is Hydrogen Peroxide hazardous to handle?
Yes. Hydrogen Peroxide is classified under GHS (signal word: Danger) as: may intensify fire; oxidizer (H272); causes skin irritation (H315); harmful if swallowed (H302); harmful if inhaled (H332); may cause respiratory irritation (H335); serious eye damage (H318); toxic to aquatic life (H401); harmful to aquatic life with long-lasting effects (Chronic Aquatic Toxicity, Category 3) (H412). Follow the storage and handling guidance above, use appropriate PPE, and download the Safety Data Sheet (SDS/MSDS) in the sidebar above for full GHS hazard, handling and PPE details.
Is a Specification Sheet, TDS or MSDS available for Hydrogen Peroxide?
Yes. a downloadable Specification Sheet (PDF) with full characteristics and specifications is available above, and a downloadable Safety Data Sheet (SDS/MSDS) for Hydrogen Peroxide is also available above.
