( MENAFN - Straits Research) Persulfates are peroxygen compounds that exhibit exceptional oxidation potential. On account of this chemical property, persulfates are used in various applications such as oil & gas, water treatment, and others. Persulfates are safe to handle and used to treat a vast range of organic compounds such as chlorinated alkenes, chlorinated alkanes, BTEX, PAHs, Freon, PCBs, MTBE, and others.

Persulfates can be classified into three types, namely sodium persulfates, potassium persulfates, and ammonium persulfates. Sodium persulfates are white, odourless, and crystalline salts or powders. They are used as originators for the polymerization of monomers and as strong oxidizing agents in various applications.



Moreover, they possess good storage stability due to high purity and are easy and safe to handle. Persulfates are used as bleaching agents in hair care products; growing hair related trends in the fashion industry along with technological advancements have led to increasing demand for hair care products, which in turn has been propelling the growth of the persulfate market. Additionally, the increasing penetration of salon services has led to high demand for professional products, thereby propelling persulfate market growth.

Prominent players are currently focusing on adopting strategies such as acquisitions, mergers, collaborations, and product developments with an aim to expand the areas of application. For instance, Natura Cosmetics and L'Oreal signe.
