• Suitable for CR-PP end products.

Half-life data::

• The activity of organic peroxides is usually expressed in terms of their half-life (t1/2) at different temperatures.
• The half-life of Trigonox 301 in chlorobenzene is 0.1 hr (170°C), 1 hr (146°C), 10 hr (125°C).

thermal stability::

• Organic peroxides are thermally unstable substances and may undergo self-accelerating decomposition.
• Self-accelerating decomposition temperature (SADT): 110°C

save::

• Due to the relative instability of organic peroxides, some mass loss may occur over time.
• A maximum storage temperature (Ts Max) of 40°C is recommended for each organic peroxide.
• When stored under recommended conditions, Trigonox 301 will remain within specification for at least 6 months after delivery.

Packaging and transportation::

• Standard packaging is 25 kg of peroxide solution in 30 liter HDPE (Nourytainer®) drums.
• Packaging and transportation comply with international regulations.

Security and handling::

• Keep the container sealed.
• Store and handle in a dry, well-ventilated area away from heat, ignition sources and direct sunlight.
• Avoid weighing in storage rooms.
• Avoid exposure to reducing agents, acids, alkalis and heavy metal compounds.
• Storage temperature should be above 10°C.
• Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for more information on the safe storage, use and handling of Trigonox 301.
