Peroxide is a powerful oxidizer. In concentrated form it is highly unstable and can be used as a rocket fuel, as stated earlier. Drugstore peroxide is diluted to 3 percent, making it marginally stable. (I seem to recall that six percent is the highest concentration that is stable.)

But it could be the glue that attaches the fibers to the carpet backing; if that's the case you might find your carpet shedding fiber in the coming weeks.
