Descriptor peróxidos
Entry term(s) peróxido
Scope note: Grupo de compuestos que contienen un grupo bivalente O-O, es decir, los átomos de oxígeno son univalentes. Pueden ser de naturaleza orgánica o inorgánica. Tales compuestos liberan oxígeno atómico fácilmente (oxígeno naciente). Por ello son fuertes agentes oxidantes e inflamables al entrar en contacto con materiales de combustión, especialmente en condiciones de altas temperaturas. Los principales usos industriales de los peróxidos son como agentes oxidantes, blanqueadores e iniciadores de la polimerización. (Hawley's Condensed Chemical Dictionary, 11th ed).

Scope note: A group of compounds that contain a bivalent O-O group, i.e., the oxygen atoms are univalent. They can either be inorganic or organic in nature. Such compounds release atomic (nascent) oxygen readily. Thus they are strong oxidizing agents and fire hazards when in contact with combustible materials, especially under high-temperature conditions. The chief industrial uses of peroxides are as oxidizing agents, bleaching agents, and initiators of polymerization. (From Hawley's Condensed Chemical Dictionary, 11th ed)
