Matrinox 21S
Matrinox 21S by Tricon - Controlled Curing Power for High-Performance Polymers
Matrinox 21S is an industrial organic peroxide widely used as a polymerization initiator and crosslinking agent in plastics and elastomer processing. It is commonly associated with peroxide-based curing systems where controlled radical generation is required at moderate to high processing temperatures. The product is valued for its consistent decomposition profile, efficient performance, and compatibility with various polymer systems.
In polyethylene and polypropylene processing, Matrinox 21S supports controlled molecular modification, improving melt flow characteristics and processing behavior. This enables manufacturers to achieve better extrusion quality, injection molding precision, and overall mechanical performance. The product is also actively used in crosslinking applications for synthetic rubbers and specialty elastomers, enhancing tensile strength, elasticity, thermal resistance, and durability.
Matrinox 21S is often supplied in stabilized or supported form to improve handling safety and ensure uniform dispersion during compounding. Its reliable performance makes it suitable for cable insulation materials, automotive rubber components, molded plastic parts, and industrial polymer applications.
Due to its peroxide nature, Matrinox 21S must be stored under controlled temperatures in well-ventilated areas away from heat, sparks, and incompatible chemicals. Strict industrial safety protocols must be followed during storage, transportation, and processing.
This product is designed strictly for industrial use and is not suitable for food, pharmaceutical, or feed applications.
Key Types and Characteristics ofMatrinox 21S
Matrinox 21S is typically available in stabilized liquid or supported solid form for industrial polymer applications. It may be supplied as powder, granules, or carrier-based formulations to enhance safety and dispersion. These forms allow accurate dosing and uniform mixing during rubber compounding and plastic processing operations.
Matrinox 21S has no approved applications in food or nutritional industries. Its peroxide chemistry and reactive properties restrict its use exclusively to industrial polymer processing. It is not used as a food additive, preservative, or processing aid and must not come into direct contact with consumable materials.
industrially, Matrinox 21S functions as a free-radical initiator and crosslinking agent in polyethylene, polypropylene, and elastomer manufacturing. It is widely used in cable insulation, molded rubber goods, automotive parts, and specialty plastic production. It has no direct pharmaceutical application but may indirectly support polymer-based medical component manufacturing.
Matrinox 21S has no application in animal feed production or livestock nutrition. Its reactive peroxide structure makes it unsuitable for feed additives or nutritional formulations. Any indirect relevance is limited to polymer packaging materials manufactured using peroxide-initiated systems.
Matrinox 21S typically appears as a white solid or stabilized formulation depending on grade. It is flammable and may decompose if exposed to excessive heat. Proper storage in cool, dry, and ventilated conditions is required. Contact with strong acids, reducing agents, or ignition sources must be strictly avoided.
Matrinox 21S is produced through controlled peroxide synthesis involving organic hydroperoxide intermediates under regulated catalytic conditions. After formation of the peroxide structure, stabilization and purification steps ensure consistent decomposition characteristics. The final product is formulated for safe industrial handling and reliable performance in polymer processing.
