METHYL ETHYL KETONE PEROXIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Methyl ethyl ketone peroxide is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with the chemical formula C₈H₁₆O₄, used primarily as a catalyst in the production of polyester resins and fiberglass-reinforced plastics. It is also employed as a hardening agent in the manufacture of coatings, adhesives, and sealants. Despite its utility, methyl ethyl ketone peroxide is highly reactive and poses significant safety hazards due to its potential for explosive decomposition. Proper handling, storage, and stringent safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation, are essential to minimize risks and ensure safe usage.
