hydrogen peroxide: Refers to the anhydrous form (i.e. "anhydrous hydrogen peroxide"), but the term is also commonly used for hydrogen peroxide solutions (marketed as solutions in water concentrations of 3 to 90% by weight). See also "hydrogen peroxide solution."  9, record 1, English, - hydrogen%20peroxide

peroxide: This term is used in common usage as an abbreviation for "hydrogen peroxide" but must not be considered as a true synonym of this latter term in a systematic sense; it does not correspond to the CAS number for "hydrogen peroxide."  2, record 1, English, - hydrogen%20peroxide

On distingue notamment : a) l'eau oxygénée concentrée, solution aqueuse acide contenant 30 % en poids de peroxyde d'hydrogène, utilisée avec précautions contre certaines lésions de la peau; b) l'eau oxygénée officinale, contenant environ 3 % en poids (8 à 12 % en volume) de peroxyde d'hydrogène, utilisée comme hémostatique et comme désinfectant. L'eau oxygénée concentrée à 20 volumes est utilisée pour la décoloration des cheveux.  7, record 1, French, - peroxyde%20d%27hydrog%C3%A8ne

peroxyde d'hydrogène : forme recommandée par l'UICPA (Union internationale de chimie pure et appliquée).  2, record 1, French, - peroxyde%20d%27hydrog%C3%A8ne

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 3 OBS

peroxyde : Ce terme est utilisé dans la vie courante comme abréviation de «peroxyde d'hydrogène», mais n'est pas un synonyme de ce dernier terme au sens strict; ce nom ne correspond pas au numéro CAS (du Chemical Abstracts Service) pour le peroxyde d'hydrogène. La prudence s'impose donc dans son emploi. Voir aussi l'autre fiche pour «peroxyde».  2, record 1, French, - peroxyde%20d%27hydrog%C3%A8ne
