TBPB

Tert.butylperoxybenzoate. It acts as an initiator (radical source) in the polymerization of monomers, e.g. ethylene, styrene in mass or suspension, (meth-)acrylates, allyl monomers in combination with other stable peroxides to achieve a constant rate of polymerization over the entire reaction. At low temperatures and under high pressure, however, highly concentrated solutions can cause crystal precipitation in dosing pumps. Provides particular advantage of reducing the residual monomer content. It is highly efficient and appears as a mobile yellowish liquid which is readily miscible with high-boiling aliphatic hydrocarbons.
