BPO concept

Benzoyl peroxide is a chemical compound (specifically, an organic peroxide) with the structural formula (C6H5−C(=O)O−)2, often abbreviated as (BzO)2. The molecule can be described structurally as two benzoyl (C6H5−C(=O)−, Bz) groups connected by a peroxide (−O−O−). It is a white granular solid with a faint odour of benzaldehyde, poorly soluble in water but soluble in acetone, ethanol, and many other organic solvents. Benzoyl peroxide is an oxidizer, which is principally used in the production of polymers.
