The application note describes the iodometric determination of hydrogen peroxide content with molybdate as a catalyst. The method is time-saving and less susceptible to interference giving reliable results.
Why It Is Important to Determine Hydrogen Peroxide Content?
Hydrogen peroxide is an oxidant commonly used as a cleaning agent or disinfectant in households and industries. The locale of application differs based on the hydrogen peroxide content. Hydrogen peroxide of lower concentration is used in household cleaning whereas higher concentration is used in industries to clean production lines. Hydrogen peroxide content is important to determine since a very low concentration of hydrogen peroxide can be purposeless whereas a higher concentration can be corrosive and harmful to humans.
