| 1. | Caprolactone is prepared industrially by Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of cyclohexanone with peracetic acid.
|
| 2. | Peracetic acid is a popular disinfectant in the medical field and food industry.
|
| 3. | Peracetic acid is generated in situ by some laundry detergents.
|
| 4. | Peroxy acids, such as peracetic acid and meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid are also typically produced using hydrogen peroxide.
|
| 5. | Classical organic procedures exist for the preparation of "'iodosobenzene diacetate "'from peracetic acid and acetic acid.
|
| 6. | So special chemicals and equipment, such as peracetic acid processors, have to be used, at significantly higher cost.
|
| 7. | The biocides found to be most active towards planktonic ( free floating ) cells were PHMB and peracetic acid.
|
| 8. | Peracetic acid has found widespread use in healthcare, food processing, and water treatment because of its broad antimicrobial properties.
|
| 9. | Peracetic acid is always sold in solution with acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide to maintain the stability of the peracid.
|
| 10. | Organic compounds important in industry and commerce that are made by direct oxidation of a precursor include ethylene oxide and peracetic acid.
