Mix Neem Oil Hydrogen Peroxide
On the mixture of neem oil and hydrogen peroxide
If you want to know whether neem oil can be mixed with hydrogen peroxide, you should investigate its properties and reason. Neem oil, derived from the fruit or seeds of neem, has the effects of repellent and antibacterial, and is widely used in horticulture and plant protection. Hydrogen peroxide, a strong oxidant, is also often used for disinfection and bleaching.
Neem oil is an organic oil lipid with a viscous texture and its molecular structure contains many hydrocarbon chains. Hydrogen peroxide is an inorganic compound with unstable characteristics. It is easy to decompose into water and oxygen when exposed to heat, light or catalysts.
If you want to mix the two, you need to think carefully. First, the chemical properties of the two are quite different, and after mixing, there may be a chemical reaction. The strong oxidation of hydrogen peroxide may cause some components in neem oil to oxidize, changing its original chemical structure, thereby affecting its efficacy. Second, the stability after mixing is also questionable. The viscosity of neem oil may affect the decomposition rate of hydrogen peroxide. On the contrary, the decomposition products of hydrogen peroxide may have an effect on the properties of neem oil.
However, if it is really necessary to mix it, it must be tested on a small scale first. Take an appropriate amount of neem oil and hydrogen peroxide and mix it slowly to observe whether there is any abnormal phenomenon such as discoloration, fever, and generation of bubbles. If there is no obvious adverse reaction after mixing, its effect on the intended target can be further tested. If it is used for plant pest control, see if it has damage to plants and how effective it is on pest control.
In short, the mixing of neem oil and hydrogen peroxide should be done with caution, fully considering the chemical properties and potential effects of the two, and can only be used on a large scale after being tested and verified.
