A powerful and sustainable sanitizer: Peracetic Acid

Industries across the globe are dealing with two major trends developing in parallel: rising standards for disinfection accompanied by growing environmental scrutiny. Solvay’s peracetic acid (PAA), a colorless, liquid organic formulation, responds to both these trends. As the leading global supplier of high-quality PAA, Solvay draws upon years of experience to formulate this highly effective biocide for use in a growing number of applications:

What is peracetic acid used for?

Peracetic acid removes surface contaminants (primarily protein) on endoscopic tubing. An automated machine using peracetic acid to sterilize medical, surgical, and dental instruments chemically (e.g., endoscopes, arthroscopes) was introduced in 1988.

Is peracetic acid a vinegar?

Peracetic acid (PAA) is produced by combining acetic acid (vinegar) and hydrogen peroxide. The result is a peroxide version of acetic acid (vinegar) that has a very distinctive and a pungent vinegary smell. As a cleaner, peracetic performs poorly as it lacks detergency properties.

What happens if you touch peracetic acid?

Peracetic acid is corrosive/irritating to the eyes, mucous membranes of the respiratory tract, and skin. It causes lacrimation, extreme discomfort, and irritation to the upper respiratory tract in humans after exposure to concentrations as low as 15.6 mg peracetic acid/m³ (5 ppm) for only 3 min.

Is peracetic acid the same as hydrogen peroxide?

Summary – Peracetic Acid vs Hydrogen Peroxide The key difference between peracetic acid and hydrogen peroxide is that peracetic acid is an organic solution that can yield acetic acid as a byproduct of oxidation processes, whereas hydrogen peroxide is an inorganic aqueous solution that can form water upon oxidation.
