BENZYL PEROXIDE

Benzyl peroxide (BOP.) is the most white granular powder used in polymer industry as also foe bleaching oils , waxes , flour tc.

SPECIFICATION:

Peroxide assay
 
98% min on dry basis
Moisture
 
25 % Approx
Benzoic Acid
 
0.5% on dry basis
Total Chlorides
 
0.4% max on dry basis
Melting Point
 
104 Deg C decomposes

Benzyl peroxides also available in paste form with 505 active matter in a Phthalate Plasticizer.

PROPERTIES AND PRECAUTIONS:

B.P.. is insoluble in water , slightly soluble in alcohol and soluble in acetone , benzene , chloroform , ether etc .B.P. in dry state being auto-explosive is supplied as wet powder to make it reasonably safe against shocks and fires . It should be kept away from heat and fire . It should be stored in cool place and away from possible contact with certain metals ,S compounds , N derivatives C reducing agents .strong alkalies will induce decomposition of BP handle it in plastic or glass containers.
Disposal of BP may be affected by careful burning of small quantities in the open or by adding 10 times its weight of 10% caustic soda solution and leave till  all burning stops.

USES:

BP being a good source of free radicals is used as an initiator in polymerisation of acrylics , vinyl-acetate , styrene etc. its oxidising property is used in decolourisation of oils , fats , waxes , flour etc.

PACKING:

50 kg fiber drums for powders and 30kg jars for paste
