Acetyl acetone peroxide (AAP) is an organic peroxide compound with the molecular formula C₆H₁₀O₄. It is derived from acetyl acetone (2,4-pentanedione) and hydrogen peroxide, resulting in a peroxide molecule that is widely used in various industrial applications. Here are some key points about acetyl acetone peroxide:
 
 
 
 
Chemical Structure:  Acetyl acetone peroxide typically exists in several forms depending on the reaction conditions, but the most common form has the structure (CH₃COCH₂COO)₂.
Role as a Peroxide: AAP is valued for its ability to decompose rapidly upon heating or initiation, releasing free radicals that can initiate polymerization reactions. This property makes it a useful radical initiator in the production of polymers, resins, and other synthetic materials.
Polymerization: Due to its hazardous nature, AAP is regulated and controlled in industrial settings. Safety protocols include proper storage, handling procedures, and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) by trained personnel.
Chemical Stability: AAP is often stabilized with inhibitors to prevent spontaneous decomposition during storage. Stabilizers help maintain the peroxide in a controlled and safe state until it is intentionally initiated under controlled conditions.
