Di-(tert-butyl peroxy iso-propyl) benzene (DTBPIB) is a specific organic peroxide compound used primarily as a radical initiator in various industrial processes, particularly in the polymerization of plastics and rubbers. Here are some key points about DTBPIB:
 
 
 
Chemical Structure:  DTBPIB has the chemical formula (C₄H₉)₂C(CH₃)COOC₆H₄C(CH₃)₂(C₄H₉)₂. It belongs to the family of organic peroxides, characterized by the presence of the peroxide functional group (-O-O-).
Role as Radical Initiator: DTBPIB is valued for its ability to decompose into free radicals (tert-butoxy radicals) when heated, which then initiate polymerization reactions. This property makes it crucial in the production of polymers such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene.
Applications:  It is used in the manufacturing of various plastic products, elastomers, adhesives, and coatings. DTBPIB initiates the polymerization process by generating radicals that start the chain reaction leading to polymer formation.
Handling and Safety: Like all organic peroxides, DTBPIB is sensitive to heat, shock, and contamination. It must be stored and handled under controlled conditions to prevent unintended decomposition, which can lead to hazardous situations such as fires or explosions.
Chemical Stability: DTBPIB is often stabilized with inhibitors to prolong its shelf life and reduce the risk of spontaneous decomposition. These stabilizers help maintain the peroxide in a controlled and usable state until it is intentionally initiated in a controlled environment.
