PRODUCT

Application for abnormal polymerization inhibitor (quencher)/application for waste solution drainage

Representative product number

Quino Power QS-W10

Characteristics

  • Since it is an aqueous solution with about 40% of the active ingredient, it does not require a dissolution process and can be used as it is.
  • It shows an excellent polymerization inhibitory effect even under anoxic conditions (anaerobic).
    It exerts a polymerization inhibitory effect even when oxygen is insufficient during an emergency.
    Polymerization inhibitors with a benzene skeleton such as 4-methoxyphenol and hydroquinone are generally effective polymerization inhibitors in the presence of oxygen.
  • It exerts an excellent polymerization inhibitory effect on a wide range of radically polymerizable monomers such as an acrylic acid ester.
    It does not matter whether it is acidic or alkaline.
  • It exerts effects of preventing polymerization and gelation of aqueous solutions containing monomers (waste solution/waste water).
  • It does not contain transition metals (Cu, etc.).

Example of experiment for preventing abnormal polymerization using QS-W10

  • QS-W10 avoids bumping and maintains a liquid state in the polymerization termination experiment of acrylic acid aqueous solution.
  • On the other hand, bumping occurs when an inhibitor is not added, and the saturated HQ aqueous solution solidifies although bumping can be avoided.

Experiment conditions

Initiator RedOx type
Addition quencher Same amount (Vol.)
QS-W10 Aqueous solution with about 20% of the active ingredient

HQ added Solidification
Without polymerization inhibitor Bumping and solidification

Example of QS-W10’s polymerization inhibitory effect

  • QS-W10 is effective not only in the presence of oxygen, but also in the absence of oxygen.
  • It exhibits excellent inhibitory ability even in situations where oxygen is insufficient or when oxygen cannot be supplied to avoid an explosion.
