Recommended Applications

Polymerization of vinylchloride: PEROXAN LP may be used in suspension polymerization of vinylchloride. Temperature range: 50 to 70°C Dosing: 0,1 to 0,3 phr

Polymerization of acrylates and methacrylates: PEROXAN LP can be used as initiator for the polymerization of acrylates and methacrylates as a replacement for 2,2'-Azobis(isobutyronitril) (PEROXAN AZDN). Temperature range: 60 to 90°C Dosing: 0,1 to 0,3 phr

Other applications: PEROXAN LP may also be used for the polymerization of vinylidenchloride.

Product Handling and Storage
  • Maximum storage temperature (Ts max) : 30°C
  • Storage stability as from date of delivery : 6 months
  • 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.
  • Please refer to the material safety data sheet (MSDS) for information concerning safe storage, use and handling of PEROXAN LP.
