Applications

Luperox K3 is an acetylacetone peroxide used in combination with a cobalt promoter for curing unsaturated polyester resins at room temperature. Whether at room temperature or high temperatures (40°C - 80°C), Luperox K3 achieves a faster cure than other ketone peroxides. A faster cure rate means shorter cycle times, thereby increasing productivity with any molding technique.
