Solution of methyl ethyl ketone peroxide and cyclohexanone peroxide in phlegmatizer. It acts as an initiator with unsaturated polyester resins. Offers advantage like shorter gel to cure time, excellent smoothness and uniformity in the cure cycle, excellent storage stability because of the absence of impurities (water, hydrogen peroxide, unreacted methyl ethyl ketone and other diluents). Also show enhanced performance with gel coats (as its hydrophobic nature provides improved mixing and resin compatibility). Also give good performance at normal temperatures. It is developed to give excellent cure performance in low and average temperature conditions.
Norox® MEKP-30 by United Initiators is an excellent liquid initiator for the polymerization of vinyl monomers and is particularly useful in the room temperature cure of polyester resins. In this application Norox® MEKP-30 imparts high exotherm characteristics to the cure.
TAPEH by United Initiators is tert. amylperoxy-2-ethyl hexanoate. It acts as an initiator (radical source) in the polymerization of monomers, e.g. ethylene, styrene, allyl monomer and (meth)acrylates for bulk or suspension in combination with thermally more stable peroxides. It is liquid therefore, easy to dose and readily miscible with high boiling aliphatic. TAPEH appears as a colorless mobile liquid having a molecular weight of 230.3 g/mol.
