Aperçu
Dicumyl peroxide (DCP, CAS 80-43-3) is the most widely used crosslinking peroxide globally, suitable for a broad range of applications: • XLPE cable insulation crosslinking — the dominant peroxide for medium/high-voltage power cable manufacturing • Silicone rubber crosslinking (heat-cured silicone, HTV silicone) • EPDM rubber vulcanization for automotive weatherstrips and seals • Polypropylene controlled degradation (visbreaking) • Wire and cable jacketing materials LAAP's DCP99 (≥99% purity) is specifically formulated for demanding cable applications. Available as white powder, pastilles, or masterbatch blends for easy incorporation into cable compounds.
Guide Technique de Sélection
Présentation du Produit
Dicumyl peroxide (DCP, CAS 80-43-3) is the most widely used crosslinking peroxide in the world, with ≥5.89% active oxygen and a 10-hour half-life temperature of 117°C. Its dominance comes from a combination of low cost, a well-understood cure profile, and a very broad application base — from XLPE power-cable insulation to EPDM vulcanization and polypropylene visbreaking.
Profil de Demi-Vie et de Température
DCP's 1-hour half-life of 135℃ and 10-hour half-life of 117℃ put the practical cure window at 160-190°C. In XLPE cable manufacture this is run in a continuous vulcanization (CV) tube; the key process variables are the DCP loading, the melt temperature in the extruder (which must stay well below the decomposition threshold to avoid scorch), and the cure-zone residence time. Because DCP decomposes to acetophenone, methane and 2-phenylisopropanol, adequate degassing is essential in high-voltage cable — acetophenone is both a byproduct and a known cause of voids if not removed.
Sélection au Sein de la Même Famille
The DCP/BIPB comparison is the single most common decision in this family. DCP is cheaper and has a virtually identical decomposition temperature, but its acetophenone byproduct creates odour and taste issues. BIPB (CAS 25155-25-3) is odourless and is therefore the default for EPDM weatherstrip, silicone rubber, food-contact and interior automotive parts. Within the dialkyl family, DCP (117°C) sits just below TBCP (CAS 3457-61-2, 120°C) and DTBP (CAS 110-05-4, 121°C); for lower-temperature processes choose BIPB or DTAP (CAS 10508-09-5, 108°C).
Qualité, REACH et Documentation
LAAP DCP99 is ≥99% pure, supplied as white crystalline powder. Typical controls are assay, active oxygen, melting point and appearance. Each batch ships with a CoA; REACH-compliant SDS and a TDS with the half-life table and recommended dosages are available.
