Description

Di-tert-Butyl Peroxyoxalate is a high-purity organic peroxide compound widely used as a polymerization initiator and crosslinking agent. Its controlled decomposition properties are critical for initiating free-radical reactions in polymer synthesis and resin curing processes. This product is essential for manufacturers in the polymer, specialty chemical, and advanced materials industries seeking reliable and efficient initiators for high-performance applications.

Application

• Polymerization Initiator: Used for the controlled initiation of free-radical polymerization of monomers such as styrene, vinyl acetate, and acrylates.
• Crosslinking Agent: Facilitates the curing and crosslinking of unsaturated polyester resins and other thermosetting polymers.
• Synthesis Intermediate: Serves as a key reagent in organic synthesis for the introduction of peroxy groups.
• Resin Curing: Employed in the production of fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP) and composite materials.
• Adhesive & Coating Formulations: Acts as a curing agent in specific high-performance adhesive and coating systems.
• Specialty Chemical Manufacturing: Utilized in the synthesis of other peroxides and specialty organic compounds.

Quality Control

Our Di-tert-Butyl Peroxyoxalate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for purity, assay, and impurity profiles. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing the results of tests including identification, assay, and related substances is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your quality requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Due to its properties as an organic peroxide and being easily oxidized, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere if specified for the grade. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong acids, reducing agents, and other initiators. Follow all local regulations for the storage of peroxidizable compounds.
