Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide

Description :

Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide In Di-Methyl Phthalate is commonly dissolved in Di-Methyl Phthalate (DMP) to create a stable solution used as a catalyst or initiator in various industrial applications, particularly in the production of polyester resins and fiberglass products. MEKP acts as a free radical initiator, initiating the polymerization process in unsaturated polyester resins when mixed with a suitable promoter and accelerator.
 Polymerization Catalyst:    MEKP is widely used as a catalyst in the curing of unsaturated polyester resins. It initiates the polymerization reaction by decomposing at elevated temperatures, releasing free radicals that promote cross-linking of polymer chains.
Composite Materials: MEKP is crucial in the production of fiberglass-reinforced plastics (FRP), where it facilitates the curing process of polyester resins to form strong and durable composite materials.
Adhesives and Sealants: It is also used in the formulation of adhesives and sealants to improve their curing properties.
Surface Coatings: MEKP is employed in the manufacturing of coatings for metal surfaces, providing protective and decorative finishes.
