HYDROGEN PEROXIDE H2O2 (30%) & Polypropylene Compatibility

Hydrogen peroxide is a deodorizing and bleaching agent. Its uses include organic and inorganic chemical processing, textile and pulp bleaching, metal treating, cosmetic applications, catalysis of polymerization reactions, municipal odor control, industrial waste treatment, and control of bulking in wastewaters.

PVDF temperature limit: 200°F (95°C). That is Arkema’s maximum use temperature for Kynar Flex® 2850 PVDF, the resin we mold, with Hydrogen Peroxide (Up to 30% in water). Arkema’s limits are for solid resin at atmospheric pressure and do not account for mixtures. Source: Arkema Kynar® PVDF chemical resistance chart.
