Dimyristyl Peroxy Dicarbonate
Industrial Application
Dimyristyl Peroxy Dicarbonate is widely used as a polymerization initiator for vinyl chloride, vinyl acetate, acrylates, and other monomers in the production of plastics, resins, and coatings. Its relatively low decomposition temperature allows it to provide controlled polymerization, resulting in desired molecular weight distributions and polymer properties.
Physical Properties
Dimyristyl Peroxy Dicarbonate is an organic peroxide compound classified as a diacyl peroxydicarbonate. It is a white to off-white waxy solid, insoluble in water but soluble in non-polar organic solvents. The compound is thermally unstable and decomposes exothermically, making it an effective free-radical initiator.
