SODIUM CARBONATE PEROXIDE.

Insufficient Data CAS 15630-89-4 / DEODORANT, OXIDISING

Sodium Carbonate Peroxide is a solid adduct of sodium carbonate and hydrogen peroxide. It functions as an oxidizing agent, releasing hydrogen peroxide upon contact with water, which then decomposes to water and oxygen, providing bleaching and antimicrobial properties.

Summary

Deodorant Oxidising

Science

Mechanism of Action

Upon hydration, Sodium Carbonate Peroxide rapidly dissociates into hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and sodium carbonate. Hydrogen peroxide, a potent oxidizer, further breaks down into water and oxygen. The released oxygen contributes to its bleaching, decontamination, sterilizing, and antibacterial effects. Simultaneously, sodium carbonate elevates the solution's pH, which can accelerate hydrogen peroxide decomposition and aid in cleaning by softening water.

Stability

This ingredient is a colorless, crystalline, hygroscopic, and heat-sensitive solid. Its stability significantly decreases when exposed to water, heat, heavy metals, or organic substances, leading to decomposition. Decomposition of released hydrogen peroxide is accelerated in alkaline environments. To enhance stability in liquid formulations, encapsulation, chelating agents, pH buffers, and careful packaging selection are crucial.

Sensitization risk Moderate

The Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) and Health Canada restrict the use of Sodium Carbonate Peroxide. It is strictly prohibited for use in products intended for the genital area. For eyelashes and eyebrows, it is restricted to up to 10% (professional use only with specific warnings). In hair products, it can be used up to 10% (as applied). For buccal and dental uses, it is not recommended for children under 12, the product's pH must be at least 4.0, and salivary peroxide levels must not exceed 3% if the product contains over 3% equivalent hydrogen peroxide. Users are advised to avoid swallowing, eye contact, and direct contact with gums/saliva, and to discontinue use if irritation occurs. The CIR Expert Panel identified 'Risk assessment method deficiencies and data gaps', basing safety assessments on maximum reported 'as used' concentrations.
