Barium peroxide by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high grade reagent. This compound is a peroxide of barium. The reagent is available as a white coloured powder which is soluble in water. It has a melting point of 450 C and a boiling point at 800 C at which it decomposes. While it is stable under general conditions, it is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. Barium peroxide can be prepared by the reversible reaction of Oxygen with barium oxide, where barium peroxide forms at around 500 C. CAS No.: 1304-29-6 Quantity Provided: 500 gm per bottle Molecular formula: BaO2 Molecular weight: 169.34 Assay: Minimum 97 %Barium peroxide has a variety of applications in chemical and biological sectors. Earlier this reagent was once used to produce hydrogen peroxide via its reaction with sulphuric acid. Barium peroxide acts as a precursor material for the production of novel magnetic and superconducting oxides. It additionally finds applications in thermochemical energy storage systems. This reagent is suitable for industrial synthesis of products and research applications.
