Active Oxygen For Washing

By gemmastyles October 26, 2020 4 answers Last updated October 26, 2020

Hello people! :) My question may be a bit unusual, but I hope for an answer. So, some time ago I worked in a detergent shop and there we sold liquid oxygen for washing, stain remover (refilled), degreasers and much more. It was all on an Italian series whose name I don't remember. Now I live quite far from this shop and I wanted to know where I can get this thing again I am from Sofia.

   Hydrogen peroxide from the pharmacy 30%. Be careful not to burn yourself. This is active oxygen. It costs pennies. I am convinced that they sold you this for a lot more money. But when you don't understand simple chemistry, you're stuck. In addition, it only whitens and after a few washes damages the tissues.

   To number 1: I really have no idea about chemistry, but I think it's something else ... it's designed for clothes and doesn't hurt. Free of phosphates and allergens, it was also tissue-friendly. I soaked clothes with my bare hands and I had nothing. Not only does it bleach, it removes stains from colored clothes, and if a garment has become stained, it removes the stain by returning the color. That was his main purpose :)

   Look now - oxygen is a gas of diatomic molecules. In fact, it makes up 21% of the air. The so-called "active oxygen" is also a gas, but consisting of individual oxygen atoms. They are so reactive that in practice they cannot be released as a gas in the free state, but react immediately upon receipt. And they are obtained from preparations that RELEASE active oxygen. These are bleach (a solution of sodium hypochlorite in water), hydrogen peroxide (30% is called perhydrol, 3% is called oxygenated water), even chlorine dissolved in water releases active oxygen. Now, it is probably a preparation that releases "soft" active oxygen, ie it releases it slowly and in small amounts. In this way he manages to do his job, arranging the tissues minimally. Such preparations can be dozens, with a variety of trade names. But to say simply "active oxygen" is, to put it mildly, meaningless. That and "poured" - ha-ha ... It's like saying "low pH" - well, it can be brought in any way, buffered or not. If you do not know exactly who the preparation is, which company it belongs to, are there similar other preparations, etc. - you are just wasting your time, as well as ours.

   It is not a question of thinking, but of a definition of active oxygen. It includes hydrogen peroxide, superoxide anion and hydroxyl radical
