Overview
TAPA is a medium-temperature peroxyester initiator used for the polymerization of ethylene in the high-pressure LDPE process, for styrene polymerization, and as a curing agent for unsaturated polyester resins. Its 10-hour half-life temperature of 96°C positions it between the low-temperature peroxyesters and the higher-temperature peroxyketals, giving process engineers a mid-range option for controlled radical initiation.
