Applications

Luperox® CU90 is a versatile polymer initiator used as a thermal initiator or as part of a redox system. It is used for the polymerization of styrene and acrylic esters at high temperatures (150℃ to $250℃ ). 5When used with an accelerator at room temperature for molded composites, it provides a lower peak exotherm, which is advantageous for large or thick articles.
