What is rubber antioxidant TMQ TDQ Rd?

Rubber Antioxidant TMQ, TQ, TDQ, RD: It is a very important category of rubber antioxidants. It has a good powerful effect on heat, oxygen, and fatigue aging.

What is antioxidant TMQ?

Antioxidant TMQ is a widely used antioxidant, especially used in the rubber industry. Similar to other antioxidants, TMQ acts as an anti-aging agent and protects rubber from heat and heat. Antioxidants are substances that hinder oxidation. Antioxidants play a role in protecting the polymer from degradation during the production of rubber.

Is TMQ soluble in water?

TMQ is one of the most essential and effective antioxidants for natural and synthetic rubbers This material possesses powerful antioxidant properties. This combination increases the polymer’s wear resistance. It is soluble in acetone, benzene, chloroform, and disulfide but insoluble in water.

What does TMQ stand for?

1,2-Dihydro-2,2,4-trimethylquinoline (TMQ) is used as primary antioxidant in rubber compounds to protect the rubber articles from oxidative degradation at ambient as well as higher temperatures. TMQ represents a group of antioxidants based on polymerized Aniline-Acetone condensation products.

What is mernox TQ?

Mernox TQ is classified as a staining type, low volatility, and polymeric antioxidant with very high potency. Mernox TQ, does not contribute to flex fatigue resistance and hence generally used in combination with para phenylenediamine class antidegradants like Mernox 6C.

Why is mernox TQ a good amine antioxidant?

Very low volatility of Mernox TQ prevents ‘loss of antioxidant’ during mixing and other processing operations and its polymeric structure offers advantage of low migration rate (as compared to other amine antioxidants) which ensures that Mernox TQ persists in the rubber compound in which it was originally compounded.
