Benzoyl Peroxide's chemical formula is C14H10O4. Strong oxidizing qualities usually found in industrial and pharmaceutical uses result from two benzoyl groups linked by a peroxide connection.
Benzoyl Peroxide has a molecular weight of 242.23 g/mol. Accurate formulation in chemical reactions and product development procedures depends on this value.
Connected by a central peroxide bond (-O-O-), the Benzoyl Peroxide chemical structure consists of two benzene rings each linked to a carbonyl group (C=O). Its efficacy in bleaching and polymerization processes depends on this reactive peroxide bridge.
Its tendency to break down before boiling makes the boiling point of Benzoyl Peroxide not well characterized. It decomposes at around 103°C (217.4°F); hence under-regulated settings, it must be handled cautiously.
Common applications of Benzoyl Peroxide include polymerization initiation, acne therapy, and bleaching oils and flours. Its oxidizing character also helps in the creation of unique compounds.
