✦ Synopsis

The efficiency of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as a crosslinking agent for polyethylene (PE) was studied as a function of concentration and temperature in relation with the resin melt flow index and particle size. The investigation can lead to the selection of suitable materials and operating conditions for a proper crosslinking process. The decomposition characteristics of the initiator studied can be regulated in order to allow faster production rates when crosslinked PE are prepared by injection molding.

## Abstract The objective of this investigation was the determination of a suitable substitute for ethylene thiourea (ETU), a well‐known vulcanizing agent for polychloroprene rubber (CR). Unfortunately, ETU is a potent carcinogenic compound, and so its replacement is needed. The efficacy of several
