Abstract

In this study, we evaluated the reactivity of organic peroxides with metals. The effect of the metals on the decomposition of organic peroxides was measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). Results of DSC measurements showed that some organic peroxides have high reactivity with a gold plated cell. Especially, hydroperoxides were decomposed at lower temperature using the gold plated cell when compared to other type of cells.

In order to evaluate the effect of metals on the hydroperoxides, the decomposition characteristics of cumenhydroperoxide (CHP) with metal powders were studied using a C80 calorimeter and the products were analyzed by a gas chromatograph. These results indicated that the radical reaction of CHP was catalyzed by the gold and the autocatalytic reaction of CHP was catalyzed by stainless steel (SUS) and hastelloy c (HC).
