Polymerization of vinylchloride: PEROXAN BCC-40 W may be used in polymerization and copolymerization of vinylchloride in mass or suspension processes, usually in combination with other peroxides of varying degrees of activity to increase reactor efficiency. Reasons to use a water based peroxide suspension are the following: - Enhanced safety - Solvent free. No contamination of the VCM recycle stream - Enhancement of PVC purity - Easy to use (pumpable) in \closed reactor technology\" - Easy to dilute with water PEROXAN BCC-40 W is especially suitable for the production of micro-S-PVC. Temperature range: 40 to 65°C Dosing: 0,08 to 0,4 phr

- Product Handling and Storage
- Maximum storage temperature (Ts max) : 15°C
- Minimum storage temperature (Ts min) : 5°C
- Storage stability as from date of delivery : 6 months
- Keep packaging tightly closed in a well ventilated place at indicated storage temperature. Keep away from reducing agents e.g. amines, acids, alkalis, heavy metal compounds (e.g. accelerators, driers, metal soaps). Never weigh out in storage room. Oxidizing agent. Decomposes violently under the influence of heat or by contact with reducing agent. Never mix with accelerators. Organic Peroxides are more or less stable products but will decompose under the influence of heat. To minimize a loss of quality during storage, it is important that the recommended maximum storage temperature is not exceeded. If a minimum storage temperature is given, an undesirable process such as a solidification or phase separation, is known to occur below this temperature.
