A novel peroxy aryl carbonate which has the both properties of polymerization-initiating and regulating abilities, can be used as a radical polymerization initiator to regulate the polymerization rate, the polymerization degree and molecular weight distribution of the polymer and the like, and therefore produce superior styrene resin and methyl methacrylate syrup.

Organic peroxide having a polymerization-regulating ability

A low-profile unsaturated polyester resin composition, consisting essentially of (A) an unsaturated polyester, (B) a monomer copolymerizable with the unsaturated polyester, and (C) an A-B type block copolymer comprising an A segment which is a product using vinyl acetate and butyl acrylate as raw materials and a B segment which is a product solely of styrene or a product using styrene and a monomer copolymerizable with styrene as raw materials.

Low-profile unsaturated polyester resin composition

A novel cyclic monoperoxyketal represented by the following general formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 represent hydrogen atoms, or same or different alkyl groups having 1-3 carbon atoms, R.sup.4 represents an alkyl group having 1-5 carbon atoms, R.sup.5 represents an alkyl group having 1-3 carbon atoms, and R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 may be separate groups, in which R.sup.6 represents an alkyl group having 1-3 carbon atoms and R.sup.7 represents an alkyl group having 2-10 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group or an aryl group, or may be combined into a cylcoalkylene group having 3-12 carbon atoms, has high stability and excellent decomposition property, and is useful as a polymerization initiator of unsaturated monomers and as a curing agent of unsaturated polyester resin.

Cyclic monoperoxyketal

An aqueous suspension of a solid organic peroxide is produced by mixing a solid organic peroxide having a difference of at least 5.degree. C. between the melting point and the thermal decomposition temperature thereof with a protective colloid, a surface active agent, and water thereby forming an aqueous emulsion and subsequently cooling this aqueous emulsion.

Method for manufacture of aqueous suspension of solid organic peroxide

A sizing agent for the treatment of glass fibers contains as principal components a film-forming agent, which is a copolymer of a specific unsaturated peroxycarbonate and an unsaturated monomer containing at least 70% by weight of vinyl acetate, and a coupling agent. A method for the treatment of glass fibers, which comprises causing said sizing agent to be deposited on glass fibers and subjecting the glass fibers coated with said sizing agent to heat treatment.

Copolymerized unsaturated peroxycarbonate sizing agent for treatment of

An aqueous emsulion of organic peroxide which is obtained by incorporating a water soluble alcohol of low molecular weight into a system which comprises an organic peroxide, an emulsifier and water, is good in the storage stability and it is capable of being transported at a low temperature.

Aqueous emulsions of organic peroxides

Dicyclododecyl peroxydicarbonate of the formula: ##STR1## is stable and can be stored at room temperature. It has a high solubility in organic solvents and good compatibility with unsaturated polyester resins. This compound is an improved polymerization initiator for free radical polymerizations of ethylenically unsaturated monomers, including copolymerization with monomers capable of copolymerizing therewith. This compound also is a catalyst for curing unsaturated polyester resin compositions.

Dicyclododecyl peroxydicarbonate

Peroxycarbonates having the following formula are copolymerizable with non-conjugated ethylenically unsaturated monomers and have good storage stability, ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 represents a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group having one to four carbon atoms, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 represent lower alkyl groups having one to four carbon atoms, and R.sub.4 represents an alkyl group having one to 12 carbon atoms or a cyclo alkyl group having three to 12 carbon atoms.

Novel peroxycarbonate

Stable peroxyesters containing both conjugated diene and peroxidic groups in their molecule; e.g., t-butylperoxysorbate, t-hexylperoxysorbate, 1,1,3,3-tetra-methylbutylperoxysorbate, are copolymerizable with other polymerizable monomers and the said compounds are useful for polymerizing monomers as free radical initiators.
