SiYPro® A551

SiYPro® A551 inhibits free-radical polymerization of vinyl monomers during processing. It can also be used as an emergency shortstop during runaway polymerization in storage tanks.

Typical Applications

Use as an in-process inhibitor for stopping unwanted polymerization of vinyl monomers, emergency shortstopper for quickly bringing runaway reactions under control.

Benefits at a glance

  • SiYPro® A551 is a high activity radical terminator formulation in n-butanol solvent
  • It is compatible with a broad spectrum of monomers, and has a good liquid range. This means it is ideally suited to both purification processes and also quenching runaway reactions, as it mixes rapidly with the polymerizing liquid
