LUPEROX® DDM-9
Luperox® DDM-9 is methyl-ethyl ketone peroxide used for the curing of unsaturated polyester resins
#CAS 1338-23-4
Product overview
Luperox® DDM-9 phthalate-free MEKP offers the greatest flexibility of concentration range and pot-life, for use in a variety of ambient temperature cure applications. It is used by most UPR polyester resin producers for standardization because of its consistent lot-to-lot activity. Low hydrogen peroxide content makes Luperox® DDM-9 ideal for use in gel coats.
Arkema’s MEKPs are available with color added to help ensure even dispersion, especially during open-mold and spray-up application.
Clear Arkema’s MEKPs are for curing of colored final products. The colorless material ensures that there is no bleed in the final product.
Red Arkema’s MEKPs allow the user to determine without a doubt that the resin has been completely catalyzed.
Disappearing Red (DR) Arkema’s MEKPs have an intense initial color, as an indicator that the resin has been completely catalyzed. The dye will fade in less than 1 hour, leaving no residual coloration to the finished product.
