Title: Estimation of TBHP

Hi, can anyone tell me the simple procedure to estimate TBHP (tert-butyl hydro peroxide) left in the reaction mixture...

Looking forward to hear from you

Here is a link to the Akzo Nobel data sheet with the half life equation

Here is the equation lifted from an excel spreadsheet to calculate the half life in seconds at T°C

LN(2)/(318000000000000000*(EXP(-186.01*1000/((T+273.15)*8.314))))

Hi, thanks for the reply. But that´s not the link I wanted. I need to estimate the TBHP probably by iodimetry. If any one have exact procedure feel free to post it here
