Sodium peroxydisulfate, 98%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals
Description
Sodium peroxydisulfate is used as a radical initiator for emulsion polymerization reactions like acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, detergent component, soil conditioner and soil remediation. It is also used for curing of formaldehyde adhesives. It acts as a bleaching agent and in the production of dyestuffs. It finds application in zinc and printed circuit boards and considered to be a replacement for ammonium persulfate in etching mixtures. Further, it is used in the preparation of diapocynin from apocynin. It plays a role in the conversion of phenols to para-diphenols in alkaline solution and of arylamines to aminophenols. It is actively involved in the Elbs persulfate oxidation and the Boyland-Sims oxidation reactions as an oxidizing agent.
