Das, Mitali;Shu, Chi-Min published 《A green approach towards adoption of chemical reaction model on 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di-(tert-butylperoxy)hexane decomposition by differential isoconversional kinetic analysis》 in 2016. The article was appeared in 《Journal of Hazardous Materials》. They have made some progress in their research.Category: alcohols-buliding-blocks The article mentions the following:
This study studied the thermal degradation products of 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di-(tert-butylperoxy) hexane (DBPH), by TG/GC/MS to identify runaway reaction and thermal safety parameters. It also included the determination of time to maximum rate under adiabatic conditions (TMRad) and self-accelerating decomposition temperature obtained through Advanced Kinetics and Technol. Solutions The apparent activation energy (Ea) was calculated from differential isoconversional kinetic anal. method using DSC experiments The Ea value obtained by Friedman anal. is at 118.0-149.0 kJ mol-1. The TMRad was 24.0 h with an apparent onset temperature of 82.4°. This study also established an efficient benchmark for a thermal hazard assessment of DBPH that can be applied to assure safer storage conditions.2,5-Dimethyl-2,5-hexanediol (cas: 110-03-2) were involved in the experimental procedure.
2,5-Dimethyl-2,5-hexanediol(cas:110-03-2) is used as an intermediate in the preparation of 2.5-Dimethyl-2.5-bis(tertbutyl-peroxy)hexane. It is also used in the synthesis of six- and seven-membered heterocyclic boron compounds.Category: alcohols-buliding-blocks
