Conclusions:
Thermal stability of Dilauroyl peroxide expressed as the time to reach a conversion of 1% at 20°C is:
5.7 days for Dilauroyl peroxide dissolved in heptane
2.9 days for Dilauroyl peroxide dissolved in chlororform
1.6 days for Dilauroyl peroxide dissolved in acetone
Executive summary:

The study was conducted to determine the stability of the substance in various solvents by Thermal analysis Differential Scanning Calorimetry(DSC) to assist with other toxicology and ecotoxicology studies.

Thermal stability expressed as the time to reach a conversion of 1% at 20°C is: 5.7 days for Dilauroyl peroxide dissolved in heptane 2.9 days for Dilauroyl peroxide dissolved in chlororform 1.6 days for Dilauroyl peroxide dissolved in acetone
