4-tert-Butylpyrocatechol (CAS 98-29-3, TBC) is a hindered phenolic compound used primarily as a polymerisation inhibitor for reactive vinyl monomers. It prevents premature polymerisation of styrene, butadiene, chloroprene, isoprene and vinyl chloride during distillation, storage and transport. TBC also functions as an antioxidant and stabiliser in rubber, plastics and specialty organic systems.
