Bis(4-tert-butylcyclohexyl) peroxydicarbonate is crystalline
solid (white powder) with slight odor, sensitive to heat
and contamination, and may decompose violently or
explosively at temperature 0–10°C, owing to self-accelerating
exothermic decomposition due to shock, heat, or
friction. To lessen the explosion risk, di-(4-tert-butylcyclohexyl)
peroxydicarbonate should be stored in a temperature
controlled vessel and mixed with water to form a
slurry of the peroxide. Hazardous polymerization does
not occur (12c). Detached storage is preferred for this
chemical, including out of direct sunlight in a cool wellventilated
place. It should be stored away from combustibles
and other incompatible materials, including strong
acids, bases, oxidizers, reducing agents, amines, and promoters/
accelerators, which may result in a violent decomposition
or explosion. Refer to the Code for the Storage of
Organic Peroxide Formulations (13a).

일반 설명
Crystalline solid. Bis(4-tert-butylcyclohexyl) peroxydicarbonate is particularly heat and contamination sensitive. These materials above a given "control temperature" may decompose violently. They are often stored in a temperature controlled vessel, also mixed with water to form a slurry of the peroxide. This greatly lessens the explosion hazard risk.
