CAS 80-43-3

Dicumyl peroxide

Description:

Dicumyl peroxide, with the CAS number 80-43-3, is an organic peroxide commonly used as a radical initiator in polymerization processes and as a crosslinking agent in the production of rubber and plastics. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. The substance is relatively stable under normal conditions but can decompose exothermically when exposed to heat, shock, or friction, which necessitates careful handling and storage. Dicumyl peroxide has a relatively low solubility in water but is soluble in organic solvents such as acetone and benzene. Its decomposition products can include various radicals, which are useful in initiating polymerization reactions. Due to its reactive nature, it is classified as a hazardous material, requiring appropriate safety measures during use, including protective equipment and proper ventilation. Additionally, it is important to store dicumyl peroxide in a cool, dry place away from incompatible materials to prevent unwanted reactions.

Controlled Product

CAS: 80-43-3

Dicumyl peroxide is a reactive molecule that functions as a thermal and chemical oxidizer. It is used in the manufacture of medicines, resins, dyes, plastics and explosives. Dicumyl peroxide reacts with the dinucleotide phosphate to form a dimethyl fumarate polymer. This reaction is cell-specific and can be used for wastewater treatment by removing nitrogen atoms from water vapor. The reaction also produces peroxide and water vapor. The kinetic and reaction mechanism of dicumyl peroxide are still not well understood.
