2. Wood-decay fungus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood-decay_fungus

   Cellulose is broken down by hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) that is produced during the breakdown of hemicellulose. [4] Because hydrogen peroxide is a small molecule, it can diffuse rapidly through the wood, leading to a decay that is not confined to the direct surroundings of the fungal hyphae. As a result of this type of decay, the wood shrinks ...

3. Dry rot treatment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_rot_treatment

   Water-based fungicides, because they are water-based, can be washed away in time if the wood they are applied to keeps getting wet. This is another reason why it is important to fix leaks, thus keeping the wood dry in an alkaline environment, and seal the wood (especially the end grain) to prevent ongoing exposure to hungry spores.

4. Hydrogen peroxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_peroxide

   Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical compound with the formula H 2 O 2.In its pure form, it is a very pale blue [5] liquid that is slightly more viscous than water.It is used as an oxidizer, bleaching agent, and antiseptic, usually as a dilute solution (3%–6% by weight) in water for consumer use and in higher concentrations for industrial use.

5. Hidden Household Uses of Hydrogen Peroxide -- Savings Experiment

   Hydrogen peroxide is an anti-fungal and anti bacterial solution that eliminates mold on a wide variety of surfaces. Just spray the undiluted solution directly onto the mold and let it sit for 10 ...

6. Stain removal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stain_removal

   This is a common method used in households to remove a variety of stains. Depending on the stains composition, the stained material is left to soak in a container of warm or cool water and solvent. Such solvents can include laundry detergent, bleach, peroxide, vinegar, or a cleaning product with enzymes.

7. HAZMAT Class 5 Oxidizing agents and organic peroxides

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAZMAT_Class_5_Oxidizing...

   For materials containing more than 1.0 percent but not more than 7.0 percent hydrogen peroxide, the available oxygen content (O a) is not more than 0.5 percent, when determined using the equation: O a = 16x = where for a material containing k species of organic peroxides:

8. Fumigation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fumigation

   Hydrogen peroxide and silver in solution and diluted in water is a non-toxic and low cost agent. For example, to fumigate a 1000 ft 3 (~28.32 m 3 ) area, a 20% solution (200 mL of solution in 1000 mL demineralized water) would be sprayed via fogger for 30 minutes.

9. Piranha solution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha_solution

   A closely related mixture, sometimes called "base piranha", is a 5:1:1 mixture of water, ammonia solution (NH 4 OH, or NH 3 (aq)), and 30% hydrogen peroxide. [2] [3] As hydrogen peroxide is less stable at high pH than under acidic conditions, NH 4 OH (pH c. 11.6) also accelerates its decomposition.
