。Half life data 

The reactivity of an organic peroxide is usually given by its half life (t1/2) at various 

　temperatures. For LQ-LPO in chlorobenzene:

　t 0.1 hr 1 hr 10 hr

　at 99℃ 79℃ 61℃

。Storage:

Due to the relatively unstable nature of organic peroxides, a loss of quality will occur over

　a period of time.
