peracetic acid

[Properties]Colorless transparent liquid with strong pungent acetic acid smell. It is weakly acidic and volatile. For strong oxidizing agents. Relative density is 1.2665 (20°C), boiling point is 105°C, melting point is 0.1°C, refractive index is 1.3924 (20°C), flash point is 40.5°C (40% peracetic acid solution). Soluble in water, sulfuric acid, ethanol, ether and other solvents. Unstable in nature, at a slightly higher temperature, it will decompose to release oxygen and generate acetic acid. It explodes violently when heated to 110°C. Usually made of 30% aqueous solution for storage. Corrosive to skin.
