Composition: Tetraethylthiuram disulfide
CAS number: 97-77-8
Polymer Carrier: EPDM
Appearance: Grey-white to Light yellow granules
An ultra-accelerator for natural and synthetic rubbers, also usable as a vulcanizing agent. It shows excellent dispersibility during rubber compound mixing. As an accelerator, its performance is similar to TMTD with slightly lower activity. It features low scorch tendency, safe processing, low blooming tendency, non-staining and non-discoloring properties. It is an excellent secondary accelerator for thiazole accelerators and can activate aldamine and guanidine accelerators. It imparts outstanding heat aging resistance and compression set resistance to vulcanizates. It is used for seals, rubber hoses, sheaths, cables, medical articles, rubberized fabrics, bright-colored products, etc.
