Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) under TSCA

H2O2 · 过氧化氢

Status: Listed. Hydrogen peroxide is on the TSCA Inventory and is currently listed as TSCA Active. **OSHA PEL 1 ppm 8-hr TWA** (29 CFR 1910.1000 Table Z-1; verify against https://www.osha.gov/annotated-pels). **EPA RMP threshold quantity** under 40 CFR 68.130 Table 1 applies at the regulated concentration cutoff (verify exact TQ and concentration threshold against https://www.epa.gov/rmp before invoicing; the EPA list applies at a specified minimum concentration, not to all H2O2). NOT on DEA scheduling. NOT on Cal Prop 65 (verify against https://oehha.ca.gov/proposition-65/proposition-65-list before relying on negative listing). **TRI Section 313 listed**: Form R annual reporting required. US AD/CVD status on Chinese-origin H2O2: verify current cash-deposit rate and any active reviews on case file at https://access.trade.gov before invoicing. Section 301 List 3 additional duty applies on Chinese-origin H2O2 (HS 284700); verify current rate against https://ustr.gov before relying. Major US domestic producers: Evonik (former PeroxyChem assets acquired 2020), Arkema, USP Technologies.

The US H2O2 lane is dominated by **OSHA PEL 1 ppm 8-hr TWA + EPA RMP 40 CFR 68.130 Table 1 listing + TRI Form R + Section 301 + corrosion-resistant tankage**. Verify current US AD/CVD case status against https://access.trade.gov before invoicing. Major US producers: Evonik (former PeroxyChem assets), Arkema, USP Technologies.

  • OSHA-compliant SDS and workplace HazCom training required
  • **OSHA PEL 1 ppm 8-hr TWA**
  • **EPA RMP regulated toxic substance** under 40 CFR 68.130 Table 1 (verify exact threshold quantity and concentration cutoff against https://www.epa.gov/rmp; RMP filing required where site quantity at the applicable concentration exceeds the listed TQ)

Importer obligations

TSCA is a self-certification regime. The dominant practitioner-facing layer is **OSHA PEL 1 ppm + EPA RMP 40 CFR 68.130 Table 1 listing + TRI Form R + Section 301 + corrosion-resistant tankage for Skin Corr. 1A bulk handling**. Verify current US AD/CVD case status against https://access.trade.gov before invoicing. Major US producers: Evonik (former PeroxyChem assets), Arkema, USP Technologies.

Required documents

  • TSCA Section 13 Import Certification statement on customs entry
  • OSHA-compliant SDS reflecting H271 / H302 / H314 / H318 / H332 classification
  • Customs entry CBP Form 7501 with HS code 284700 (H2O2) and Section 301 List 3 duty applied (verify current rate against https://ustr.gov)
  • **EPA RMP filing** where site quantity at the applicable concentration cutoff exceeds the 40 CFR 68.130 Table 1 threshold (verify against https://www.epa.gov/rmp)
  • TRI Form R annual report
  • CDR filing every 4 years if site exceeds the applicable TSCA CDR threshold (verify current threshold against https://www.epa.gov/chemical-data-reporting)

Common compliance traps

The pitfalls that have bitten importers on this lane in the past. None of these is theoretical.

  • **OSHA PEL 1 ppm 8-hr TWA + EPA RMP 40 CFR 68.130 Table 1 listing + TRI Form R**
