Chemical Properties
Peroxydisulfate contains peroxide groups and functions as a strong oxidizing agent capable of oxidizing Mn²⁺ to MnO₄⁻. Ammonium persulfate is produced through electrolysis of ammonium bisulfate aqueous solutions.
S₂O₈²⁻ + 2H₂O ⇌ 2HSO₄⁻ + H₂O₂
The resulting solution contains ammonium ions, peroxydisulfate ions, hydrogen sulfate ions, and sulfate ions. The hydrolysis process creates an acidic solution, with nitric acid addition inhibiting the forward reaction.
Primary Applications
When you Buy Ammonium Persulfate from us, you are sourcing a product with tailored purity grades for specific, sensitive applications. We highlight two distinct use-case pathways: its regulated use as a Food Grade additive and its performance-critical role as a Hair Bleaching Booster. This underscores our capability to cater to diverse market needs—from stringent food safety standards to demanding cosmetic performance criteria—with the appropriate product specifications and documentation.
Food Grade Applications
The Food Grade designation is paramount. Ammonium persulfate is used in the food industry as a flour treatment agent and dough conditioner (E number E923). In this application, it acts as an oxidizing agent, strengthening gluten networks in dough by forming disulfide bonds between protein molecules. This results in improved dough elasticity, stability, and gas retention, leading to baked goods with better volume, finer crumb structure, and enhanced texture.
The "Food Grade" classification means the product is manufactured and handled under strict hygiene controls to meet purity standards set by organizations like the FAO/WHO Codex Alimentarius or the US Food Chemical Codex. It must have exceptionally low levels of heavy metals (like arsenic and lead), other toxic impurities, and microbiological contaminants. We supply this grade with full compliance documentation, including Certificates of Analysis (CoA) and Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), essential for food manufacturers' audit trails and HACCP plans.
Hair Bleaching Booster Applications
As a Hair Bleaching Booster, ammonium persulfate is a fundamental component in professional and consumer hair lightening powders or creams. It is not used alone but as a "persulfate booster" mixed with an alkalizer (like ammonia or monoethanolamine) and a primary oxidant (hydrogen peroxide). This combination creates a powerful bleaching system that effectively decolorizes melanin in the hair shaft.
The ammonium persulfate provides a supplemental source of oxidizing power, allowing for faster, stronger, and more uniform lifting of dark hair pigments to achieve platinum blondes and high-lift colors. For cosmetic chemists and manufacturers, the consistency, particle size (for mixability), and purity of the APS are critical to ensure predictable bleaching performance, batch-to-batch uniformity, and minimized risk of scalp irritation. We supply material ideal for this application, with guidance on formulation ratios. Our "Buy" proposition emphasizes easy ordering, flexible quantities from samples to bulk, and reliable delivery to keep your production lines or salon supply business flowing.
