AIBN is primarily used as a thermal free radical initiator for polymerization reactions in plastics, resins, adhesives, coatings, and organic synthesis.
When heated, AIBN decomposes to generate nitrogen gas and free radicals that initiate polymerization reactions.
AIBN is only slightly soluble in water but dissolves well in many common organic solvents.
It should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from heat, ignition sources, and direct sunlight.
