What is TMTD used for?

TMTD is widely used in rubber processing as an ultra accelerator for low-temperature cures, either alone or as an activator for other accelerators, chiefly the thiazoles. It can be used: In conjunction with accelerators such as mercaptobenzothiazole (0.25 – 0.5 TMTD on the weight of the gum).

Can TMTD be used as a secondary accelerator?

TMTD can be used as a single accelerator, as a secondary accelerator or as a sulfur donor in most sulfur-cured elastomers. TMTD is scorchy and gives fast cure rates. In sulfurless and EV cure systems TMTD produces an excellent vulcanization plateau with good heat aging and compression set resistance.

Chemical synonyms: Tetramethylthiuram disulfide, Bis (dimethyldithiocarbamoyl) disulfide, Thiram, Thiuram TMTD is widely used in rubber processing as an ultra accelerator for low-temperature cures, either alone or as an activator for other accelerators, chiefly the thiazoles. It can be used:

What is a rubber accelerator?

The range of rubber accelerators we have are produced by leading producers of rubber chemicals. They combine state-of-the-art technology with world-class manufacturing. Our range of products: CBS is a primarily amine-based accelerator giving good scorch safety, a fast cure rate and good modulus development in a variety of general purpose polymers.
