4-tert-Butylcatechol functions as a stabilizer and inhibitor in various polymerization processes. It acts by inhibiting the formation of peroxides and preventing unwanted side reactions, thereby extending the shelf life and improving the quality of the polymer products. At the molecular level, 4-tert-Butylcatechol works by scavenging free radicals and terminating chain reactions, which helps to control the polymerization process and maintain the desired properties of the final polymer material. Its mechanism of action involves interacting with reactive species and interrupting their propagation, ultimately contributing to the stability and consistency of the polymerization process.
