Product Overview:
Benzoyl Peroxide (BPO) is a widely used organic peroxide that serves as an effective curing agent for unsaturated polyester resins. BPO is suitable for curing processes conducted at both ambient and elevated temperatures, making it a versatile choice for various industrial applications. Benzoyl peroxide for polyester resin ensures a reliable curing process, enhancing the performance and durability of the final product.
Our Benzoyl Peroxide (BPO) products are available in the following specifications:
Model | Content | Carrier | Form |
---|---|---|---|
75W | 75% | Water | Powder/Granules |
50F | 50% | Dicyclohexyl phthalate | Powder/Granules |
BW50 | 50% | Dibutyl phthalate | Paste |
Applications:
BPO is extensively used in the curing of unsaturated polyester resins, which are employed in the production of a wide range of products, including fiberglass-reinforced plastics (FRP), coatings, adhesives, and composite materials. Its reliability and efficiency make it ideal for both room temperature and heat-accelerated curing processes.
Key Specifications:
Chemical Name: Benzoyl Peroxide
CAS Number: 94-36-0
EINECS/ELINCS No.: 202-327-6
TSCA Status: Listed on inventory
Safety Data:
Self-Accelerating Decomposition Temperature (SADT): 80°C
UN Number: 3104
China Dangerous Chemical Number (CN-No): 52045
Flashpoint: Not applicable (solid)
Thermal Decomposition Temperature: 60°C
Solubility:
Soluble in benzene, chloroform, and acetone
Slightly soluble in ethanol

Thermal Stability:
Like other organic peroxides, BPO is thermally unstable and can undergo self-accelerating decomposition. The Self-Accelerating Decomposition Temperature (SADT) is determined using the Heat Accumulation Storage Test, which complies with the Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods by the United Nations.
Safety and Handling:
Store and handle BPO in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from heat sources, ignition, and direct sunlight. Avoid contact with reducing agents, acids, alkalis, and heavy metal compounds. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) available at nouryon.com/sds-search for comprehensive safety and handling instructions.
We provide small samples free of charge, but you will need to cover the shipping costs.
We have our own technical department. After you test the sample, please provide us with your detailed requirements. We can adjust the resin accordingly to enhance the properties of your finished products.
Honestly, it depends on the quantity. We will do our best to create a production plan based on your estimated time of arrival (ETA).
For the first trial order, we require 100% payment upfront. For subsequent orders, we ask for 30% payment in advance and 70% payment after the buyer receives the B/L copy. We also accept L/C if needed.
