Abstract:
A composition suitable for polymer curing, the composition comprising:a) one or more organic peroxides selected from the following formulae:(R.sup.1 --C(CH.sub.3).sub.2 --OO--C(CH.sub.3).sub.2).sub.n --R.sup.2 (I)wherein R.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of an alkyl, aryl and aryl-alkyl-substituted group having up to 9 carbon atoms, R.sup.2 is selected from the group consisting of phenylene, ethylene, ethenylene, alkyl, aryl and aryl-alkyl-substituted group having up to 9 carbon atoms and n is an integer equal to 1 or 2; ##STR3## wherein the two R.sup.3 substituents are independently selected from the group consisting of alkyl, aryl and aryl-alkyl-substituted group having up to 9 carbon atoms, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are independently linear or branched alkyl groups having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms or --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --C(O)OR.sup.6 wherein R.sup.6 is an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms and m is an integer from 1 to 3, or R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 together form a cyclohexane or cyclododecane ring which is unsubstituted or substituted with up to three alkyl groups each independently having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms;andb) dicyclopentadiene having the formula ##STR4##
