MBTS-70

Characteristics and Applications

A general-purpose accelerator for natural and synthetic rubbers, with excellent dispersibility during compound mixing. It resists premature vulcanization, offers a wide vulcanization plateau and marked delayed-action characteristics, ensuring safe processing; it is non-staining and imparts good aging resistance to vulcanizates. It can also act as a plasticizer or retarder in neoprene. Used alone, it provides a slow vulcanization rate, so it is normally blended with thiurams, dithiocarbamates, aldamine and guanidine accelerators. It is an excellent anti-scorch agent for G-type neoprene. It is mainly applied to rubber articles including sealing strips, rubber hoses and rubberized fabrics.
