Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
Dicetyl peroxydicarbonate is a white powder with faint odor. It
presents a bulk density of 0.6 g/cm3 andmelting point of 52°C.
It is sensitive to heat and its storage must be done so with
stringent temperature control measures. Its explosion hazard is
mitigated by mixing the peroxide with inert solid. It decomposes
violently or explosively at temperatures 0–10°C owing to
self-accelerating exothermic decomposition. Several recorded
explosions were due to shock, heat, or friction; amines and
certain metals can cause accelerated decomposition (12d). | [Uses]
Dicetyl peroxydicarbonate is an imitator for the copolymerization
of vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, acrylates, and
methacrylates. No information was located for this compound.
Decomposition or combustion products include carbon
dioxide, carbon monoxide, and hexadecanol. | [General Description]
Dicetyl peroxydicarbonate is sensitive to heat. Storage of Dicetyl peroxydicarbonate must be done so with stringent temperature control measures. It's explosion hazard is also mitigated by mixing the peroxide with inert solid. | [Reactivity Profile]
Dicetyl peroxydicarbonate decomposes violently or explosively at temperatures 0-10° C. owing to self-accelerating exothermic decomposition; Several explosions were due to shock, heat or friction; amines and certain metals can cause accelerated decomposition [Bretherick, 1979 p. 156]. |
