This study presents chemical incompatibility data for di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) using the Reactive System Screening Tool (RSST). The findings aid in efficiently screening hazardous chemicals for safer industrial operations.

Area of Science:

  • Chemical Engineering
  • Process Safety
  • Materials Science

Background:

  • Reactive hazard evaluation is crucial for chemical process industries.
  • Efficient screening techniques are needed due to the large number of experiments required for chemical incompatibility studies.
  • Existing screening methods like Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Reactive System Screening Tool (RSST) are vital for prioritizing hazardous chemicals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present chemical incompatibility data for di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) in various organic solvents, measured using the RSST.
  • To generalize the analysis of incompatibility data based on solvent functional groups.
  • To propose a classification system for reactive chemicals to guide detailed testing.

Main Methods:
