Paramenthane hydroperoxide (PMHP) is an organic peroxide compound used as a radical initiator in the production of polymers, resins and other organic compounds. PMHP, a colorless and viscous liquid with an unpleasant odor, is highly unstable and could pose risks if not handled properly. It is produced through the oxidation of paramenthane using either hydrogen peroxide or organic peracids. Due to its instability, PMHP has several industrial uses due to its high reactivity, such as plastics, adhesives and coatings production. However, due to its potential hazards, proper safety measures and handling protocols must be observed during production and storage in order to avoid accidents and guarantee worker safety.
