Benzoyl peroxide (BPO) is an organic compound in the peroxide family. It consists of two benzoyl groups bridged by a peroxide link. It is one of the most important organic peroxides in terms of applications and the scale of its production. Benzoyl peroxide is used as an acne treatment, for bleaching hair and teeth. Adverse reactions are: dryness and urticarial reaction, contact dermatitis, application site burning, application site irritation and skin irritation.

|
PRIMARY | Description: A white, amorphous or granular powder. Solubility: Practically insoluble in water; soluble in acetone R; soluble in dichloromethane R with separation of water; slightlysoluble in ethanol (~750 g/l) TS. Category: Keratolytic agent. Storage: Hydrous Benzoyl peroxide should be kept in a container that has been treated to reduce static discharge and that has a device for the release of excess pressure. Store at a temperature between 2 and 8 ?C, protected from light. Additional information: CAUTION: Hydrous Benzoyl peroxide may explode at temperatures higher than 60 ?C or if its water content is too low. It may burst into flame in the presence of reducing substances. Unused material must not be returned to the original container but destroyed by treating with sodium hydroxide (~80 g/l) TS to a point where no iodine is liberated after acidifying with hydrochloric acid (~70 g/l) TS and adding a crystal of potassium iodide R. Hydrous Benzoyl peroxide loses water rapidly on exposure to air. It must be handled with care, avoiding contact with the skin and mucous membranes and inhalation of airborne particles. | ||
