Hydrogen Peroxide

Researchers have developed an efficient, eco-friendly, and energy-saving method for synthesizing hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). using a hydrazone-linked Covalent Organic Framework (COF). 

  • The COF enables H2O2 production under visible light without external sacrificial electron donors or additional reagents, making it a cleaner and more efficient alternative to conventional methods.
  • About Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2): It is a colorless liquid with a bitter taste at room temperature, highly unstable, and decomposes into oxygen and water, releasing heat. 
  • Uses: Antiseptic for wounds (diluted solutions), disinfectant in hospitals and clinics. 
    • Industrial Uses: Bleaching agent in paper, textile, and cosmetic industries. 
    • Rocket Propulsion: High-concentration H2O2 used as a propellant
    • Chemical Applications: Employed in food processing for sterilization. 
    • Hazards: It is a strong oxidizer and may cause spontaneous ignition with combustible materials. 
  • Peroxide chemicals are organic compounds that contain a peroxide functional group (two linked oxygen atoms).
