tert-Amyl perpivalate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

t-Amyl peroxypivalate is a colorless to slightly yellowliquid. It has an active oxygen content of 6.29–6.46% at 74–76% purity. In benzene at 0.2 mol/L, it has a half-life of 10.0 h at 58°C (137°F). It is soluble in most organic solvents and is used as a low-temperature initiator for the polymerization of ethylene, vinyl chloride, vinyl acetate, styrene, acrylonitrile, and methyl methacrylate .
