Uses.

1. Polymer crosslinking agent: It is an organic peroxide crosslinking agent which can be widely applied to a variety of polymers, especially suitable for polyethylene (LDPE, HDPE), ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer polymerization.

Crosslinking agent, crosslinking temperature of 1700C or more, in 1400C or less does not crosslinking. The dosage is 0.5%-3% (W/W), in some materials that are not easy to cross-linking its dosage is usually

1%-5%.

2. It is a high temperature vulcanizing agent for vinyl silicone rubber: it is also an excellent vulcanizing agent for other kinds of rubber, and the rubber vulcanized with this product has outstanding advantages such as high tensile strength and high hardness.

3. Excellent degradation agent for polypropylene degradation: Degradation temperature is 200-2200C, dosage is 0.01-0.1%. It can be used to make rheological polypropylene with low molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution, and can be used for

It is an important initiator for high-speed spinning materials, coating materials, film materials and cast plastics, and is the preferred raw material for the production of cooling masterbatch.

4. It is a high temperature curing agent for unsaturated polyester.

Packaging and Transportation:

Our peroxide products are packed in different packages of 5kg, 15kg and 20kg according to international standards, and can also be supplied according to customers' requirements, all of which are packed with PE materials.

Storage Precautions.

1. Store in a cool and ventilated space with a temperature not exceeding 300C.

2. Keep away from fire and heat source. It should be stored separately from acids, reducing agents, flammables, combustibles and reducing agents.

3. The lighting and ventilation of the storage room and other facilities are of explosion-proof type, and the switch is located outdoors.

4. When handling, it should be put down carefully and gently to prevent the damage of package and container, prohibit impact and oscillation, and pay attention to personal protection in the packing and handling operation.

Method of destruction.

1. Dilution and incineration: the products to be destroyed are diluted with cheap solvents, such as sprinkler, waste oil, etc. to below 10% and then incinerated under controlled conditions.

2. Hydrolysis: Prepare methanol or isopropanol solution of caustic soda as 20%-30%, then add the product to be destroyed into caustic soda solution about 10 times of its weight, stirring while adding until the hydrolysis is complete.

3. A large number of products destroyed users must notify the manufacturer to send specialized personnel to avoid accidents.

Spill handling:

1, the product accidentally into the eyes, should immediately pull open the eyelids, for flowing water rinse for 15 minutes, seek medical attention.

2. If accidentally splashed on the skin, immediately rinse thoroughly with soapy water and water. Seek medical attention.

3. If the product spills or leaks onto the ground, it should be absorbed by sand, vermiculite or other inert materials, then collected in a plastic bucket with a non-sparking tool and transported to the waste disposal site. And use

Water rinses contaminated ground.

Fire protection:

1, the product may be due to heat and violent decomposition, will be violent fire, a small amount of product small fire should be quickly extinguished with foam or dry powder fire extinguisher.

2, the fire should be quickly withdrawn to a safe distance away and put out with a water gun, notify the fire department to deal with.
