Currently TBHP/FF6 M redox initiator is used in my latex polymerization. The by product of TBHP is VOC. Any recommendation for initiators of which by-products are not VOC or grafted to the end of polymer molecules? My reaction conditions: 70-90C, pH 4-6; styrene/acrylic polymer latex. Thermal or redox initialization will be fine. Hopefully, the peroxide is easy to handle.
Thanks!

Dear Jigui Li, you can use radiation polymerization, it answers all your conditions and criteria. Free radicals are generated in situ from the solvent and/or the monomers, i. e., no need to use a radical type initiator. My Regards
