Mix Hydrogen Peroxide Bleach Dangers

On the Hazards of Mixing Hydrogen Peroxide and Bleach
Hydrogen peroxide and bleach are both common chemicals, but the world knows little about the dangers of their mixing. Let's talk about it in detail today to warn everyone.

Hydrogen peroxide has strong oxidizing properties and is used in many fields. Bleach is also commonly used to bleach clothes and clean the environment due to its oxidizing properties. However, if the two are mixed, it is like starting a fire and causing disaster.

When hydrogen peroxide and bleach meet, a chemical reaction starts instantly. This reaction is not only violent, but also releases a lot of gas. Among them, the formation of chlorine is particularly terrifying. Chlorine is a highly toxic gas, which is pungent to smell, and can damage the respiratory tract if inhaled. Light cause cough, asthma, chest tightness, severe can cause breathing difficulties, pulmonary edema, endangering life.

And this mixed reaction is easy to get out of control. Because of the large amount of heat accumulated during the process, if it occurs in a closed space, the pressure rises sharply, or the container explodes, debris splashes, injuring people and materials.

Furthermore, after mixing, the resulting material may have unknown chemical properties and hazards. Or pollute the environment, or remain on the items, and quietly harm when used in the future.

Therefore, when using hydrogen peroxide and bleach, it is necessary to strictly abide by the regulations and must not be mixed at will. Where using chemicals, we should be respectful, understand their characteristics, and avoid their harm, in order to ensure the safety of ourselves and others, and to protect the peace of the environment.
