Akzo Nobel is a global supplier of organic peroxides for curing thermoset resins, coatings, specialty monomers and resins.

Our products are marketed under such well-known trademarks as Butanox®, Cyclonox®, Cadox®, Laurox®, Perkadox® and Trigonox® and can be divided into classes such as ketone peroxides, peroxyesters, diacyl peroxides, dialkyl peroxides, and peroxyketals.

Main areas of application include curing of unsaturated polyester and vinyl ester resins used in the manufacture of fiberglass or glassfiber reinforced plastices (FRP/GRP) such as bathroom fixtures, automotive bodyparts, chemical storage tanks, pipes and liners, furniture, boat hulls, fishing rods, light weight ladder rails, recreational vehicle  parts and architectural components.

The right choice of cure system depends on the process, processing conditions, the application technique and the type of resin. Organic peroxides are the primary radical source for starting the polymerization process of these thermoset resins.
