Nouryon Perkadox GB-50X Diphenylacetyl Peroxide 94-36-0

Perkadox GB-50X
Dibenzoyl Peroxide
CAS Number: 94-36-0
Physical Form: Granular powder
Perkadox® GB-50X is a free-flowing 50% peroxide formulation on a phthalate-free carrier, designed for curing unsaturated polyester resins and (methyl)acrylic resins at ambient and elevated temperatures. It offers excellent solubility in standard thermosetting curing applications.
Applications
Perkadox® GB-50X is a non-caking, fine-grained powder with excellent free-flowing properties, containing 50% dibenzoyl peroxide. Perkadox® GB-50X is used to cure unsaturated polyester resins and (methyl)acrylate resins at room temperature and high temperatures. At temperatures up to 80°C, Perkadox® GB-50X should be used in combination with an aromatic tertiary amine accelerator. No accelerator is required at temperatures above 80°C. Perkadox® GB-50X is easy to handle, easy to disperse, and dissolves rapidly in unsaturated polyester and (meth)acrylic resins. Perkadox® GB-50X does not dissolve completely in resin systems and is therefore not suitable for the production of cured parts requiring high transparency. For these applications, Perkadox® GB-50L is recommended.
