Applications	2,5-Dimethyl-2,5-di(tert-butylperoxy)hexane is an efficient peroxide for the degradation of polypropylene (CR-PP) in the temperature range of 200-250°C. It can also be used as chaser catalyst to reduce residual monomer in the mass polymerization of styrene. It is used for the crosslinking of natural and synthetic rubber, as well as thermoplastic polyolefins: Rubber compounds containing Trigonox 101 have excellent scorch safety. Safe processing temperature: 135°C(rheometer ts2 > 20 minutes). Typical crosslinking temperature: 175 ℃ (rheometer t90 about 12 minutes).
Shipping Condition	Stable to be Shipped at room temperature.
