The oxidizing properties of this salt are advantageous in such applications.

Given its strong oxidizing properties, perchloric acid is subject to extensive regulations.

It is toxic because of its oxidizing properties.

Almost all applications of potassium permanganate exploit its oxidizing properties.

The zinc compound proves an effective component in explosives because of its oxidizing properties.

Moreover, it is believed that the powerful oxidizing properties of ozone may be a contributing factor of inflammation.

Oxidizing properties Can support combustion and oxidize.

Some artisans feel that the soil is away from the sunlight and rain for years and therefore it has great oxidizing properties.

The oxidizing properties of Fe(edta)- are also exploited in photography where it is used to solubilize silver particles.

Its powerful oxidizing properties are suggested by the oxidation number of +2 for the oxygen atom instead of its normal -2.

Its toxicity derives from its oxidizing properties, which make it able to denaturate proteins (including enzymes).

Illustrative of its powerful oxidizing properties, it is used to etch copper on printed circuit boards as an alternative to ferric chloride solution.

Because of its oxidizing properties, peroxynitrite can damage a wide array of molecules in cells, including DNA and proteins.

However, the powerful oxidizing properties of nitric acid are thermodynamic in nature, but sometimes its oxidation reactions are rather kinetically non-favored.

The element is widely used for purifying water owing to its powerful oxidizing properties, especially potable water supplies and water used in swimming pools.

Oxidizing properties Can support combustion Not classified as an oxidizing material according to Directive 67/548/EEC and test A17.

Due to the strongly oxidizing properties of ozone, ozone is a primary irritant, affecting especially the eyes and respiratory systems and can be hazardous at even low concentrations.

However, these beneficial properties are often overshadowed by the electrolyte's strong oxidizing properties, making the electrolyte reactive toward its solvent at high temperatures and/or high current loads.

Its strong oxidizing properties are used for cleaving disulfide bonds in protein mapping, as well as for epoxidation, hydroxylation and oxidation reactions in organic synthesis.

It is a powerful oxidizer when hot, but its aqueous solutions up to approximately 70% and room temperature are generally safe, only showing strong acid features and no oxidizing properties.

Its corrosiveness on other materials, like metals, living tissues or even stones, can be mainly ascribed to its strong acidic nature and, if concentrated, strong dehydrating and oxidizing properties.

Potassium permanganate, also called Condy's crystals, is a commonly used laboratory reagent because of its oxidizing properties and finds use as a topical medicine (for example, in the treatment of fish diseases).

How they ever explained the oxidising properties of chlorine remains a mystery to us from Western Australia!

The full test does not need to be conducted for solids if the preliminary test clearly indicates that the test substance has oxidising properties.

It should give details on vapour control, shock sensitivity, corrosiveness, oxidising properties, and reactivity with common substances (air or water etc).

Other hazardous chemical reactivity - corrosivity, oxidising properties, reactivity with common substances (eg air and water) tendency to spontaneous combustion or self accelerating polymerisation, shock or light sensitivity.

Note that as there is no test method to determine the oxidising properties of gaseous mixtures, the evaluation of these properties must be realised by an estimation method based on the comparison of the oxidising potential of gases in a mixture with that of the oxidising potential of oxygen in air.
