Product introduction
BPO is an organic peroxygen initiator with strong oxidizing properties. Can be split into two primary free radicals. This decomposition produces an approximately first-order rate reaction with no side reactions in aqueous solution. BPO produces polymers with high linearity and molecular weight through a smooth, stable and controllable decomposition reaction.
