Initiating and cross-linking ability of organic peroxides: Chemical kinetic methods for the determination

This review surveys chemical kinetic methods for the quantitative determination of the initiating C, and cross-linking ability of organic peroxides ROOR (peroxides, hydroperoxides, peroxyesters, diacyl peroxides, and peroxy carbonates). The conditions and limitations of the use of autoxidation, inhibitor, radical polymerization, and model cross-linking methods are analyzed. The results of the determination of the initiating and C cross-linking ability of the most important organic peroxides are cited.
