Natural Cleaning With Hydrogen Peroxide

Natural Cleaning With Hydrogen Peroxide

Our Powerizer Water Soluble Pods and Powder Laundry Detergent are made with Sodium Percarbonate; when mixed with water, it makes Hydrogen Peroxide better known as oxygen bleach. There are many benefits of Hydrogen Peroxide in laundry detergents and for everyday cleaning.    

Hydrogen Peroxide is best known commercially as an antiseptic. Applied to the skin to reduce the possibility of infection, sepsis, and putrefaction. We all have at least one brown bottle in the medicine cabinet, especially since the beginning of the pandemic. The CDC shared how effective it is for cleaning. However,  industry reports indicate the number one (#1) use of H2O2 is the use in laundry detergents products.

Powerizer chose Sodium Percarbonate because it is a color-safe bleach which is an alternative to Sodium Hypochlorite better known as bleach because of its biobased ingredients; it has earned approval as an EPA Biobased Product for cleaning in four categories laundry, dish, carpet, and upholstery, and multipurpose cleaning. With two times the amount of Hydrogen Peroxide than the brown bottle sold in stores today.  It is an anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-mold and, anti-mildew cleaning agent.

It's superior cleaning abilities for cleaning laundry, dishes, bathrooms, floors and carpets.

Natural Cleaning With Hydrogen Peroxide

So today, we wanted to highlight Hydrogen Peroxide. The compound name for hydrogen peroxide is H2O2. It is considered an oxidizerbleaching agent, non-chlorine bleach and antiseptic. It is one of the main ingredients in Powerizer Complete. However, Powerizer uses the dried powdered form called Sodium Percarbonate, an adduct of Sodium Carbonate and Hydrogen Peroxide. When sodium carbonate (soda ash) and Sodium Percarbonate mixed with water, activates Hydrogen Peroxide. With more Sodium Percarbonate added to the formula, better cleaning happens due to more hydrogen peroxide in the mix so let us discuss the benefits.

Benefit #1

One scoop added to water, and Powerizer now encompasses an Oxidizing agent, a substance that can oxidize other substances - in other words, to accept their electrons. This reaction is beneficial in removing odors from fabrics and surfaces.  Hydrogen Peroxide removes odor from a smelly toilet bowl or sweaty socks. When cleaning laundry, Powerizer does not discriminate against football or designer work socks. There is no need to buy a separate odor removing laundry detergent for sports apparel or sensitive skin. When concerned about triggering skin allergens, consumers rave about how it rinses clean, leaving no lingering scent.

Benefit #2

Water activates the oxygen bleach. Bleaches are oxidizing agents (chemicals that can remove electrons from other molecules); some are also reducing agents (that donate electrons). Bleaches work by reacting with many colored organic compounds, such as natural pigments, and turning them into colorless ones.

Stain removal is essential for washing, and all-natural laundry detergents usually cannot do it alone. However, with Powerizer Complete, we have demonstrated how to remove wine stains safely and instantly. Powerizer concentrated solution neutralizes colored compounds found in stains. Lifting the stain sooner than later is always preferred. 

 

Powerizer's color-safe bleach will not remove the dyes from clothing, so it is safe for washing colored and dark fabrics and performs just as well when washing in cold water temperatures.


 

Sodium Percarbonate is one of the main ingredients in Powerizer Complete. It is why cleaning hard surfaces and fibers are easy. However, it can be mixed to remove stains, deodorize pet odors, tackle laundry, and make your dishes sparkle. In addition, it is a hard-water softener and machine cleaner for washing machines and dishwashers. It replaces hard surface cleaners like window cleaner, toilet bowl cleaner,  floor cleaner, tile and grout cleaner, specialty cleaners. Powerizer is a multipurpose cleaner for countertops, cabinets, walls, baseboards, walls, cast iron, pots and pans, and even concrete. Powerizer simplifies cleaning so that consumers can save time, eliminate excess products, reduce the number of containers and lessen their environmental footprint. By switching to Powerizer, you can gain more storage space, eliminate harmful toxic ingredients from their homes and, most of all, save money.

Natural Cleaning With Hydrogen Peroxide

Although Powerizer has never been tested as an antiseptic for cleaning the skin, we know the formula's measurement of hydrogen peroxide exceeds the minimum requirements to be considered a disinfectant for killing bugs off surfaces. Our formulation would require a specific measurement of water to Powerizer, which has yet to be specified. However, mixing more detergent with less water or used as a cleanser will effectively remove grilling grease stains from the deck, yet safe enough to clean without using gloves.

Powerizer must always be rinsed with plain water to remove residues from the detergent and stains. To prevent a white powder from forming on the surface, after it dries, rinse the surface or fibers thoroughly with plain water. Wipe items with a dry microfiber towel, which is an excellent tool for removing excess moisture, to polish away residues, and shine surfaces.
