Di(4-tertbutylcyclohexyl) Peroxy Dicarbonate
Industrial Application
Di(4-tertbutylcyclohexyl) Peroxy Dicarbonate is primarily employed in the production of PVC, polyolefins, and other specialty polymers, offering controlled reaction rates and improved polymer properties. It is usually handled in diluted form or with stabilizers to ensure safety, as it is sensitive to heat and shock.
Physical Properties
Di(4-tertbutylcyclohexyl) Peroxy Dicarbonate is an organic peroxide widely used as a free-radical initiator in industrial polymerization processes. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow oily liquid or crystalline solid with a faint odor, and it has limited solubility in water but is soluble in many organic solvents. The compound is thermally unstable and decomposes at elevated temperatures to release free radicals, which initiate polymerization of monomers such as vinyl chloride, acrylates, and methacrylates.
