Handbook of Free Radical Initiators

Free radical initiators–chemical molecules which easily decompose into free radicals–serve as reactive intermediates in synthetic methodologies such as organic and polymer synthesis as well as in technological processes, oligomerization, network formation, and kinetic research. The Handbook of Free Radical Initiators presents an up-to-date account of the physicochemical data on radical initiators and reactions of radical generation. Individual chapters include: Dialkyl Peroxides and HydroperoxidesDiacyl Peroxides, Peresters, and Organic PolyoxidesAzo-CompoundsBimolecular Reactions of Free Radical Generation by Ozone, Dioxygen, Hydroperoxides, and Haloid MoleculesFree Radical Abstraction ReactionsFree Radical Addition ReactionsFree Radical Recombination and Disproportoination ReactionsProfessionals and academic researchers in chemical engineering, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, plastics, and rubbers will find the Handbook of Free Radical Initiators to be a distinguished, vital resource.
