Organic peroxides having at least one carbon-carbon double bond, e.g. 2-t-amylperoxy-4,6-diallyloxy-1,3,5-triazine, and the use of such organic peroxides as cross-linking agents for polymers are disclosed. The organic peroxides of the current invention allow polymer cross-linking at elevated temperatures. The disclosed organic peroxides are especially useful in processes for cross-linking polymers and co-polymers of ethylene. |
