Oxides are compounds (of course they must be pure). Its composition contains only two elements, one of which must be oxygen, the other if it is a metal element, it is called a metal oxide; if the other is not a metal element, it is called a non-metal oxide. Peroxide refers to a compound containing peroxy-O-O-. It can be regarded as a derivative of hydrogen peroxide, which contains peroxide ions in its molecules. Peroxides are divided into inorganic peroxides and organic peroxides.

More Information

Oxides and peroxides are essential commodities in the chemical and industrial sectors owing to their characteristics and high reactivity. For instance, copper oxide and hydrogen peroxide are known to be used in oxidation reactions as well as in catalytic processes in industries.

The difference between oxide and peroxide is that oxides have one oxygen atom while peroxides have two oxygen atoms bonded to a metal or non-metal. Some examples are glucose oxide and peroxide which are useful in biosynthesis in, the food and medicine industry.

Applications of oxides and peroxides include:

● Catalysts in the synthesis of chemicals

● Energy storage in batteries

● Biochemical reactions and enzyme biosynthesis

● Sanitizing agents and detergents

● Semiconductor and electronics manufacturing

● Food production and medicine production industries
