How to convert hydrogen peroxide by volume into hydrogen peroxide percentage.
Hydrogen peroxide concentration can be denoted in many different ways. Two of the most common ways are by percentage and by volume. This can add confusion to an already confusing topic.
So the concentration is the amount of hydrogen peroxide in a solution and hydrogen peroxide when it decomposes releases oxygen , a single atom of oxygen and the rest is water.
Hydrogen peroxide releases oxygen at a specific rate 3.3 volumes per percentage. So a 1% hydrogen peroxide will release 3.3 volumes of oxygen.
So all we have to do is remember this which is probably the harder part take your volume and divide it by 3.3 to get your hydrogen peroxide concentration.
So in the hair styling industry and Europe they go by volume a lot and so a 10 volume hydrogen peroxide divide that by 3.3 and we get a 3.03% concentration of hydrogen peroxide.
A 20 volume hydrogen peroxide would equal a 6.06% concentration.
A 60 volume hydrogen peroxide would equal a 18.18% concentration hydrogen peroxide.
Hydrogen Peroxide Material Compatibility
35% Hydrogen Peroxide undiluted is an oxidizer and corrosive. Most hot tubs use newer material for seals and gaskets which are compatible with hydrogen peroxide. Although the concentration level is very low after adding 35% Hydrogen Peroxide to a hot tub knowing what materials are best is always good.
Natural rubber is not compatible with hydrogen peroxide. The rubber will break down fairly quickly and the reason “eye droppers” should not be used to dispense 35% Hydrogen Peroxide.
For Hydrogen Peroxide 30% +. A “C” rating may work for some industrial application however we do not recommend using materials with a “C” or “D” as to avoid possible unwanted chemical residue from material degradation.

Hydrogen Peroxide Found In The Body
Too much of just about anything thing isn’t good. Except possibly Love and Truth. Excessive hydrogen peroxide can damage the body.
Our body produces catalyses which neutralizes unused hydrogen peroxide produced by the body. Hydrogen peroxide has been detected in freshly voided urine.
Researchers theorize the hydrogen peroxide may help prevent Continue reading “Hydrogen Peroxide In The Body”
Oxygen In The Muscles
How Low Oxygen Contributes To Fatigue
Oxygen is used in so many process in the body. Every cell in the body contains mitochondria that uses oxygen to convert glucose (sugar) into energy. This process is called cell respiration.
When oxygen falls below optimal levels such as during exercise or physical exertion normal aerobic cell respiration will switch to a less efficient method of converting glucose to energy called lactic acid fermentation. This is a type of anaerobic cell respiration which does not require oxygen. Continue reading “Oxygen In The Muscles”
Does 35% Hydrogen Peroxide Freeze?
35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide Does Freeze
Hydrogen 2o2 35% H2O2 should not freeze in a common home freezer. If you purchased from someone else and your 35% Hydrogen Peroxide freezes it’s NOT 35% H2O2.
35% Hydrogen Peroxide will freeze at or below a temperature of -34 C. or -29..2 F. An average home freezer temperature range is between 32 F and 0 F.
20% Hydrogen Peroxide will freeze at or below -15 C. or 5 F. 5 F. falls in the range of a typical home freezer so if your Hydrogen Peroxide freezes in your freezer its not 35%. Our 35% Hydrogen Peroxide will not freeze in your freezer.
Below is a chart showing hydrogen peroxide freezing and boiling points. Continue reading “Does 35% Hydrogen Peroxide Freeze?”
Chlorine Alternative For Your Hot Tub
A chlorine alternative or bromine alternative makes sense for a healthier life. Research has begun to show adverse health risk linked to the use of chlorine as a water sanitizer. Inhibiting the endocrine system is especially harmful for women. The chlorine molecule mimics a key hormone with receptors in the thyroid gland causing an over or under releasing of hormones. Over produced hormones combined with under produced hormones in this area research has drawn strong relationship to certain types of cancers.
The endocrine systems is made up of all of the bodies hormones. These tiny “chemical messengers” get released into the blood stream and act on other organs through-out the body. The endocrine system regulates many processes including reproductive, temperature, mood, metabolism and blood sugar levels. Just because we’ve used chlorine as a hot tub chemical in the past doesn’t mean we should continue.
CHLORINE ALTERNATIVE
35% Spa Science Hydrogen Peroxide can be used as not only an 
alternative to chlorine or bromine but as the primary choice for hot tubs and spas! Hydrogen Peroxide has been known and accepted as a sanitizer for many years. Continue reading “Chlorine Alternative For Your Hot Tub”

3% Hydrogen Peroxide, awesome. A recent government shutdown scare here in the Pacific Northwest Washington and the looming threat of discontinuing the support for disease outbreak lead me to a study regarding the efficacy of different disinfection agents on toothbrushes.
50 kids age 8-11 were enrolled and their brushes tested over a 28 day period. Common bacteria, virus and fungi found on toothbrushes were Continue reading “Petri Dish On A Stick Your Toothbrush!”
