Applications

  • 1. An excellent low-temperature initiator for low-density polyethylene (LDPE), commonly used in the tubular process. When combined with the initiator TBPV (t...
  • ), and the initiator TBPB (tert-butyl perbenzoate) to form a composite initiator system, which yields better polymerization results.
  • 2. A high-temperature curing agent for unsaturated polyesters.
  • 3. Can be used as a polymerization initiator for styrene or styrene copolymers, as well as for methacrylates and vinyl acetate.
