tert-Butyl peroxy-3,5,5-trimethylhexanoate

Description:
Tert-Butyl peroxy-3,5,5-trimethylhexanoate is an organic peroxide commonly used as a radical initiator in polymerization processes. It is characterized by its structure, which includes a tert-butyl group and a peroxy linkage, making it a source of free radicals upon thermal decomposition. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a relatively low viscosity. It is known for its stability under normal conditions but can decompose exothermically when exposed to heat, light, or contaminants. The substance is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Due to its reactive nature, it is classified as a hazardous material, requiring careful handling and storage to prevent accidental decomposition. Safety measures include using appropriate personal protective equipment and ensuring proper ventilation in work areas. In industrial applications, it is primarily utilized in the production of polymers and resins, contributing to the synthesis of various materials in the chemical industry.
