tert-Butyl peroxyneodecanoate Usage And Synthesis

Uses

t-Butyl Peroxyneodecanoate is useful as a low-temperature initiator for radicalcatalyzed polymerization of vinyl monomers.

General Description

tert-Butyl peroxyneodecanoate is sensitive to heat. Storage of tert-Butyl peroxyneodecanoate must be done so with stringent temperature control measures. It's explosion hazard is also mitigated by mixing the peroxide in an organic solvent slurry. Responders should try to identify solvent.

Reactivity Profile

TERT-BUTYL PEROXYNEODECANOATE explodes with great violence when rapidly heated to a critical temperature; pure form is shock sensitive and detonable [Bretherick 1979 p. 602].
