Inorganic and organic hydrolyzable chlorides: 100mg/Uses:

1. This product is a commonly selected polymerization initiator for ethylene polymerization, suitable for both autoclave and tubular processes. It is also a polymerization initiator for acrylates and methacrylates, with an applicable temperature range of 80-150°C.

2. This product can be used as a polymerization initiator for styrene, with higher activity than BPO. It can also be used in combination with peroxides such as TBPB and TBEC. It is also an important initiator for vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymers.

3. It serves as a high-temperature curing agent for unsaturated polyesters, with a curing temperature of 120-160°C. It is primarily used for UP in hot compression molding processes (DMC, BMC) and can also work with cobalt accelerators at 60°C for air-drying paints and filament winding processes.

Packaging and Transportation:

Our standard packaging is 20 kg polyethylene containers. We can also supply according to customer-specified packaging sizes; customers may make requests at the time of ordering.
