Applications

Ammonium Persulfate is a versatile compound with applications across multiple industries due to its strong oxidizing properties. 


  • Polymerization Initiator: Serves as a free radical initiator in the production of polymers, such as acrylonitrile and itaconic acid copolymerization, or for acrylamide gel polymerization in biochemistry labs.

  • Oxidizing Agent: Used for solvent-free oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to carbonyl compounds in aqueous media, and for converting thiols to disulfides.

  • Bleaching and Etching: Applied in the chemical industry as a bleaching agent and in electronics for etching printed circuit boards (PCBs).

  • Water Treatment: Acts as an oxidant in wastewater treatment to degrade organic pollutants.

  • Other Uses: Utilized in cosmetics for hair bleaching, in mining for ore processing, and in analytical chemistry as a reagent.


Its efficiency and controlled reactivity make it a preferred choice for processes requiring precise oxidation.
