Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) rubber and silicone rubber are highly versatile materials used across a multitude of industries. Enhancing their performance often requires the use of effective crosslinking agents. Bis(tert-butyldioxyisopropyl)benzene peroxide (BIPB) has emerged as a superior choice for crosslinking these elastomers, offering advantages in efficiency, product quality, and processing ease. This article examines the benefits of utilizing BIPB for EPDM and silicone rubber applications. BIPB is a peroxide-based crosslinking agent that is particularly well-suited for EPDM and silicone rubber formulations. Its primary advantage is its ability to achieve efficient crosslinking, leading to materials with improved mechanical properties such as enhanced tensile strength, elongation, and resilience. For EPDM rubber, BIPB contributes to excellent resistance against heat, ozone, and weathering, making it ideal for applications like automotive seals, roofing membranes, and hoses. In silicone rubber, BIPB aids in creating products with high-temperature stability, flexibility, and good electrical insulation properties, essential for medical devices, cookware, and electrical components. A significant benefit of using BIPB is its low odor profile. Traditional crosslinking agents can sometimes leave an unpleasant residual odor in the final products, which can be a drawback for consumer-facing applications. BIPB, being virtually odorless, eliminates this concern, contributing to a better user experience and a more pleasant manufacturing environment. This characteristic makes BIPB a preferred option for manufacturers aiming for premium product quality and adherence to strict regulatory standards. Furthermore, BIPB offers comparable or even superior performance to other crosslinking agents, often with a lower addition rate required to achieve the same level of crosslinking. This can translate into cost efficiencies for manufacturers. The improved aging coefficient and oil resistance provided by BIPB also ensure that EPDM and silicone rubber products maintain their integrity and performance over extended periods and under challenging conditions.
