Advanced Crosslinking Technology

Transform your polymer crosslinking processes with DCP (Dicumyl Peroxide), the high-performance organic peroxide that delivers efficient and controlled crosslinking across multiple grades for optimized processing performance.

Understanding DCP (Dicumyl Peroxide)

DCP stands at the forefront of crosslinking technology as one of the most widely used organic peroxides in polymer processing worldwide. The molecular structure of DCP, featuring two cumyl groups joined by a peroxide bond, provides the perfect balance of stability during processing and controlled decomposition during crosslinking. This unique characteristic makes DCP an invaluable tool in modern polymer manufacturing.

The success of DCP in crosslinking applications comes from its predictable behavior and reliable performance. When exposed to specific temperature ranges, DCP generates free radicals in a controlled manner, creating strong chemical bonds between polymer chains. This predictable decomposition profile allows manufacturers to achieve precise crosslinking levels, resulting in consistent product quality across various applications.
