Description

Acetoxymethyl vinyl ketone is a peroxide used in the production of polyolefins and other plastics. It can be prepared by the addition of acetyl chloride to vinyl alcohol, followed by hydrolysis. Acetoxymethyl vinyl ketone is an isomeric compound that can be produced from recycled materials and does not require additional energy. The process releases only small amounts of peroxide and no aldehydes or carbonyls. Acetoxymethyl vinyl ketone also has radiation-reactive properties, which can be used to produce active methylene groups for use in monomers.
