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).

Does TMTD require sulfur?

Sulfur is not required but is often used. It is widely used as a primary accelerator for curing systems requiring very low or no sulfur. TMTD is often used to activate thiazole or sulfenamide cure systems. Accelerator TMTD is also available in a pellet form and micro granules (MG) to reduce dusting. TMTD contains 13% available sulfur.

What is accelerator TMTD?

Accelerator TMTD is also available in a pellet form and micro granules (MG) to reduce dusting. TMTD contains 13% available sulfur. Improved scorch resistance can be obtained in TMTD stocks by the use of the thiazole or sulfenamide accelerators as a primary accelerators. TMTD is an off-white to light gray in color. 144 0.30 0.40 1.43 144 —- 0.50

How to store dimacit TMTD?

Inorganic acids break down Dimacit TMTD into carbon disulfide and hydrogen sulphide. Store in dry well-ventilated place away from foodstuffs. No reduction in the assay of the active substance has been observed after storage for 2 years in the original packing under normal conditions. Protect against acids and substances liberating acids.
