Ammonium Persulfate, APS
Product Description
Ammonium Persulfate (APS) is a powerful, stable, and easy-to-handle oxidizing agent. It is commonly used as a polymerization initiator, etching agent, and cleaning additive. With its high assay, low moisture content, and excellent solubility, APS has become an essential chemical in industries such as electronics, textiles, water treatment, and mining.
Compared to other oxidizing agents, APS offers advantages in storage stability, safety, and ease of transport, which make it a preferred choice for global buyers. It decomposes under heat to release free radicals, which explains its wide application in polymer synthesis and soil/water remediation.
Key Selling Points:
Strong oxidizing power with consistent purity ≥ 98.5%
White crystalline powder form, easy to dissolve and handle
Reliable initiator for acrylonitrile, styrene, and vinyl acetate polymerization
Safer and more stable than liquid oxidizers like hydrogen peroxide
Widely used in PCB manufacturing, textile treatment, and water purification
