4-tert-Butylcatechol (TBC) is an organic chemical compound which is a derivative of catechol. [1] TBC is available in the form of a solid crystal flake [2] and 85% solution in methanol [3] or water. [4]
It is added as a stabilizer and polymerisation inhibitor to butadiene, styrene, [5] vinyl acetate, divinylbenzene [6] and other reactive monomer streams. [7]
TBC is also used as a stabilizer in the manufacture of polyurethane foam. [8] It also can be used as an antioxidant for synthetic rubber, polymers and oil derivatives. [7] It can be used as purification agent for aminoformate catalysts.[ citation needed]
It is 25 times better than hydroquinone at 60 °C for polymerization inhibitory effect.[ citation needed]
