appliance::

• Polymerization initiator for styrene.
• Temperature range: 100-140°C.
• Supply use level: 0.02-0.1% (as is).
• Special advantages: reduced residual monomer content, no reaction with chain modifiers (e.g. mercaptan), no hydrolysis in alkaline media.
• It is recommended to use it in combination with more active peroxides such as tert-butylperoxy 2-ethylhexanoate.

decomposition product::

• Possible detectable breakdown products: acetone, tert-butanol, hexanone.

stockpile::

• Avoid any source of heat, light and humidity and protect the product from impurities.
• Keep within a safe temperature range.
