OXONE MONOPERSULFATE COMPOUND

Oxone is a powerful non-chlorine oxidizing agent that is used in a variety of industrial and consumer applications. It is a white, odorless crystalline solid that is soluble in water. Oxone is made up of potassium peroxymonosulfate (KHSO5), also known as potassium monopersulfate; and from this peracid chemistry is where it gets its oxidising power. The Oxone monopersulfate compound is a solution of Lanxess.

CAS: 10058-23-8
