There appears to be some difference in the US and Europe regarding
shipping of peroxide.
Whether it is stabilized industrial grade hydrogen peroxide (60%) or
HTP with a concentration of 85%, I always get it delivered in 30L
plastic canisters in a standard truck at a cost of 2000SEK
(≈233USD) per pallet. The only difference is that the HTP is
delivered on plastic pallets while the industrial grade is always
delivered on wooden pallets. There is also no requirement that the
truck should be empty and only carry the peroxide. All this is
according to ADR (European Agreement Concerning the International
Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road).
I pay 12SEK / kg for industrial grade and 27 SEK / Kg for the HTP.

I've bought peroxide from FMC in the last year. It's shipped in 30
purpose-built aluminum drums. It just has to be shipped in a truckwith
floors that aren't wood; in our case it came in a normalrefrigerator semi
trailer with aluminum floors. It's not specialized to peroxidetransport.

The shipping is nearly flat rate, as you need an empty truck and
hazmat processes. So it's best to order as much as practical in oneorder.
The counterbalance to that is that they charge $15 per day per drumrental
after the first 30 days, so you also want to ship the drums back(which can
be done non-hazmat if they are triple rinsed to FMC procedure) assoon as
they are empty.deionized
Each 30 gal peroxide drum comes with a 55 gallon plastic drum of
water, which is an important fluid for peroxide operations.<wyatt.rehder@xxxxxxxxx>

I talked to the peroxide division of FMC a few years ago. I guess
regularlysold it and it is now called PeroxyChem. At the time they didn't

I know some people who have purchased small quantities from
chemicalsomewhat recently. I don't what his production ability is.
The real kicker with HTP is the shipping. FMC had a special conex
container and a special truck to transport it. Since it isn't a
reallythat is commonly transported (In that Concentration) there aren't
costmany off the shelf solutions for shipping it. So shipping tends to
probablyabout as much as the peroxide if you are buying a large amount,
yourself ofmore than the peroxide if it's a small amount. You could do it
whatever methodcourse so long as you have a hazmat shipping endorsement for
$29,600of transportation you are using.
You could always buy your own 150 lb/day plant from XL-space for
or otherit looks like. Though I think you might also have to get permits
have doneregulatory things to operate the plant.
Also I cant really think of anyone other than the British, that
a Kero/HTP rocket of that size.
