Chemical compound

Dipropyl peroxydicarbonate (trade name Luperox 221) is an organic peroxide with a variety of industrial uses, particularly as an initiator of polymerization.

Dipropyl peroxydicarbonate decomposes explosively at 0–10 °C (32–50 °F) due to a self-accelerating exothermic decomposition.
