Application

Lauroyl peroxide can be used as:
  • A long chain branching(LCB) introducer in polypropylene to improve its mechanical recycling process.
  • A mild oxidant and efficient hydrogen abstractor in the preparation of disulfide compounds through dimerization of corresponding dithiocarbamates.
  • An initiator in the preparation of ion-imprinted polymers(IIPs).
  • An initiator and oxidant to construct erythrina ring system via oxidative radical cyclizations of enamide in the presence of nBu3SnH.
