7、ethod for Dicumyl Peroxide, Assay (LiquidChromatography)3. Summary of Test Method3.1 Dicumyl peroxide and dimethylbenzyl alcohol are ex-tracted from a cryogenically ground sample with methylenechloride. The extract is concentrated, redissolved in methanol,and analyzed by high performance liquid chro
8、matography(HPLC). Acetophenone is extracted from a separate samplewith methanol and analyzed directly by HPLC. The analysesare performed on a reversed phase octadecylsilane (ODS)column using acetonitrile/water as the mobile phase and anultraviolet detector at 254 nm. The concentration of eachcompone
9、nt is determined by the internal standard technique,using peak height ratios of the sample and standard chromato-grams.4. Significance and Use4.1 Knowledge of the peroxide content of uncured PE andEVA samples is required to regulate the degree of crosslinkingin the cured product. As end use applicat

Precautions7.1 Organic peroxides are strong oxidizing agents andpresent potential fire and explosion hazards. Reactivity varieswidely and some compounds may expl
35、ode when shocked.While dicumyl peroxide is one of the more stable peroxides,contact with reducing agents and sources of heat, sparks, oropen flame must be avoided. Organic peroxides in general areirritating to the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. Avoidbodily contact and handle only in a well-ventil
36、ated area.7.2 Small quantities of solid or molten dicumyl peroxidecan be safely handled at temperatures up to 55C. Dicumylperoxide should not be heated above 55C as the rate ofperoxide decomposition rapidly increases with increasing tem-peratures above this point.7.3 Only a water bath that has been
37、preheated to the desiredtemperature and removed from the heat source should be usedfor warming vessels containing dicumyl peroxide. Electricallyheated water baths should not be used as they may causelocalized hot spots. Other sources of heat considered unsafe forwarming containers of dicumyl peroxid
38、e include ovens, hotplates, and direct steam.8.
