Product Introduction:
Azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN), additionally called “2,2′-Azobis(2-methylpropionitrile)”, is the most popular azo cost-free radical initiator.
Azobisisobutyronitrile is generally a white columnar crystal or a white powder crystal.
Insoluble in water, soluble in methanol, warm ethanol, benzene, toluene, slightly soluble in ethanol.
It should be noted that azobisisobutyronitrile exploded when dissolved in acetone and heptane.
Azobisisobutironitrile decomposes when heated to release nitrogen gas and organic cyanide containing -(CH2)2-C-CN group – which is harmful to human body.
AIBN decomposes above 60 ℃ to form isobutyronitrile group, which triggers a free radical reaction, and decomposes slowly at room temperature, and decomposes sharply at 100 ℃, which can cause explosion and fire and is flammable.
