75% Calcium Peroxide
( Commercial Grade)
Calcium peroxide is a white or yellowish solid peroxide which slowly decomposes to release oxygen at a “controlled” rate when in contact of hydrous media. Calcium peroxide is of the most temperature stable inorganic peroxides. It decomposed slowly in moist air, is practically insoluble in water, and dissolves in acids, forming hydrogen peroxide. A 1:100 aqueous slurry has a pH of about 12. Except for its stable oxygen releasing capability, calcium peroxide has similar functions of other peroxides e.g. bleaching, disinfecting, deodorizing. Calcium peroxide is environmentally friendly due to its product properties.

Applications
Calcium peroxide is an ecologically pure substance, which can be used in different fields of industry and agriculture.
In environmental protection, it is used:
- For treating waste water and remediation of groundwater
- For decontaminating soil
In agriculture, it is used:
- As fertilizing rich with oxygen
- For stimulating seed growth and their germinating power
- For pre sowing treatment of rice seed, which allows to do planting not by seedlings, but by dry seeds, coated with calcium peroxide. Such a technique sufficiently decreases work expenditure and increases crop capacity
In aquaculture, it is used:
- To provide sufficient dissolved oxygen
- To adjust pH value
- To reduce the subaqueous content of ammonium and nitrogen
- To eliminate carbon dioxide and sulfureted hydrogen
- To prevent anaerobe for proliferation and killing nosogenetic bacteria, defecating aqueous body
In poultry – raising, it is used:
- To decontamination of fodder
- To increase productivity, hens safety and improving their eggs
In cattle-breeding, it is used:
- For prophylaxis of casein-stone formation in the abomasum and diarrhea with newborn calves
- As an antimicrobic effect
- For stimulating protective organism strength
- For normalizing activity of the alimentary canal
- For activating digestion work
- For great increasing live stock safety
In precious metal production, it is used:
- For leaching precious metals in the formation of cyano complexes (particularly complexes with gold and/or silver) from ores, ore concentrates, and other particle-shaped, solid materials
In bakery industry, it is used:
- To improve bread crumb and its porosity
- To keep moisture in dough during its baking
- To initiate yeast growth
In dental care, it is used:
- For tooth bleaching
