Dihexadecyl sulfide

Dialkyl sulfides accelerate the decomposition of polypropylene hydroperoxide according to an entirely different mechanism. Data on the influence of an admixture of dihexadecyl sulfide on the decomposition of polypropylene hydroperoxide at 110°C are cited in [55]. As can be seen from Fig. 11, the concentration of the hydroperoxide in the absence of the sulfide drops extremely slowly, while in the presence of the sulfide it drops considerably more rapidly, especially at the beginning of the reaction. Correspondingly, the rate of formation of water during the decomposition of the hydroperoxide in the presence of the sulfide is characterized by a sharply pronounced maximum.
