Applications
Luperox 221 polymer initiator is an industrial pure material, typically used for the polymerization of ultra-high purity thermoplastics. High purity is achieved by managing the decomposition products of Luperox 221, which mainly include propanol. Other initiators with similar reactivity may decompose into 2-ethylhexanol or sec-butanol, which are more difficult to volatilize.
