Topic: Organic peroxide


  
  Organic peroxide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MEKP and benzoyl peroxide are commonly used for this purpose.
Benzoyl peroxide and acetone peroxide are used as bleaching and "maturing" agents for treating flour to make its grain release gluten easier; the alternative is letting the flour slowly oxidize by air, which is too slow for the industrialized era.
Many organic chemicals form peroxides in presence of atmospheric oxygen and sometimes ultraviolet light; a typical example is the diethyl ether peroxide.
