Magnesium peroxide

Magnesium peroxide (CAS 1335-26-8 ), also marketed as Peromag and Drillox M, is a solid oxidizing agent that releases oxygen slowly upon contact with moisture. This controlled oxygen release makes it effective as a soil amendment and water treatment additive.

It serves as a powerful antimicrobial agent across multiple industries. In contaminated site remediation and groundwater treatment, it delivers sustained oxygen to stimulate aerobic biodegradation of hydrocarbon pollutants.

Agricultural applications rely on its slow oxygen release to improve soil aeration and promote root development. It is also used to extend the viability of seeds in waterlogged or anaerobic conditions.

Pharmaceutical and healthcare formulators use it as a mild bleaching and antimicrobial component. It is frequently found in oral care products, wound care preparations, and various disinfectant formulations.

In oilfield drilling, it functions as an oxidizing additive to control anaerobic bacteria in drilling muds and fluid systems. This ensures the stability and safety of the fluid systems during extraction.

The product is supplied as a white to off-white powder, typically with active oxygen content specified as a percentage. Standard commercial grades range from approximately 15% to 50% active content.

Higher-purity grades are available for pharmaceutical applications requiring strict compliance. Technical-grade material is the most common supply form for environmental and agricultural end uses.
