PEROXAN PIV-50

Polymerization of ethylene : PEROXAN PIV-50 is used for high pressure in both autoclave and tubular processes, usually in combination with other peroxides of varying degrees of activity. Temperature range: 165 to 230°C Light-off temperature at 2300 bar: 190°C

Polymerization of styrene: PEROXAN PIV-50 may be used in polymerization and copolymarization of styrene. Temperature range: 85 to 105°C Dosing: 0,02 to 0,1 phr

Polymerization of acrylates and methacrylates: PEROXAN PIV-50 can be used as initiator for the solution, bulk and suspension (co)polymerization of acrylates and methacrylates. Temperature range (solution polym.): 80 to 160°C Dosing: 0,1 to 1 phr

Other applications: PEROXAN PIV-50 may also be used for the (co)polymerization of acrylonitrile.

• Maximum storage temperature (Ts max) : 5°C
• Storage stability as from date of delivery : 3 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 PIV-50.
