1,3 1,4-Bis(tert-butylperoxyisopropyl) benzene
Molecular weight: 338.5 g/mol
Main properties
Form: Powder
Peroxide content: 40%
Active oxygen content: 3.8%
Scorch protection
Luperox? 40P-SP2 provides excellent burn-in protection and solves the disadvantages of conventional antioxidants.
As shown in Figure 1, the main advantages over conventional antioxidants are:
It traps free radicals relatively quickly to provide good char protection;
Comparable cross-linking levels (cross-linking levels are not reduced).
performances
The vulcanization properties of Luperox? F40P-SP2, Luperox? F40P and Luperox? F40M-SP in EPDM (EPDM DUTRAL TER 4049) compounds are as follows. The peroxide content was 8 phr.
Luperox?F40P-SP2 and Luperox?F40M-SP have extended protection time or "scorch time at vulcanization temperature" (t s2at 190°C) by 30% and 18% respectively compared to Luperox?F40P.
Excellent scorch protection measured at 145°C for Menni Viscosity Modifiers.
The char protection time t s05 of Luperox? F40P-SP2 is 3 times higher than that of Luperox? F40P.
vantage
The excellent scorch protection offered by Luperox? F40P-SP2 offers many advantages.
reduce costs
Luperox? F40P-SP2's inherent excellent char protection reduces the amount of antioxidant used in the formulation.

Productivity can be increased by increasing the mixing rate.
The two-step blend can be changed to a one-step blend.
Good scorch protection extends the mixing time and results in a more homogeneous mix.
vulcanization (curing rubber using sulfur and heat)
In injection molding, a longer protection time reduces scrap. Mould design can be optimized (more cavities): more productive and more suitable for peroxide vulcanized rubber products. In addition, higher mold temperatures can be used to increase productivity: faster mold filling, faster vulcanization.
In extrusion processing, both extrusion temperature and speed can be increased as a way to increase productivity. Good burn-in protection reduces downtime for cleaning equipment (gels) and increases production time.
major application
Luperox? F40P-SP2 has been specially developed for processes such as injection molding or vulcanization of reactive polymers (HNBR or CPE) that require strict burn-in protection. As a result, it can be applied to a wide range of products. For example:
