Frequently Asked Questions

What is hydrogen peroxide-polyvinylpyrrolidone?

It is a complex of hydrogen peroxide (CAS 7722-84-1) bound to polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), forming a stabilized solid-state carrier that releases hydrogen peroxide on demand. It is used as a controlled active-oxygen source for oxidation and bleaching applications.

What is the PVP-hydrogen peroxide complex used for?

It serves as a controlled source of hydrogen peroxide for oxidation and oxidative bleaching, and as a solid-state peroxide delivery form for dry formulations where handling liquid peroxide is impractical. The PVP carrier stabilizes the active and meters its release.

Is polyvinylpyrrolidone the same as PVP?

Yes. PVP is the standard abbreviation for polyvinylpyrrolidone, the polymer that carries and stabilizes the hydrogen peroxide in this complex.

What is the UN number for shipping the hydrogen peroxide-PVP complex?

The hydrogen peroxide active is referenced under UN 2015 (HYDROGEN PEROXIDE, AQUEOUS SOLUTION, STABILIZED). Transport classification of the finished solid complex depends on its active-oxygen content — the SDS specifies the applicable shipping requirements, and RawSource supplies it with every order.

What bulk packaging and active content are available?

This material is supplied as a stabilized solid with a defined available-oxygen / peroxide content that varies by grade. Specify your required active level and volume when requesting a quote; an SDS and CoA accompany the order.
