| Chemical Name: N, N’-caprolactam disulfide Molecular Formula: C12H20N2O2S2 CAS#: 23847-08-7 Description: White powder, soluble in benzene, carbon tetrachloride, slightly soluble in acetone ,petrol, hardly soluble in ethanol, ethyl ether, insoluble in water. Non-toxic, room temperature storage stability. Applications: DTDC is a not discoloring sulfur donor for natural and synthetic rubber and latex, especially for low sulfur vulcanization, salt bath vulcanization, injection moulding and for vulcanization of thick-walled products. it provides mono-and di-sulfur bridges which are more stable than those formed by elemental sulfur. In contrast to other sulfur donors DTDC does not form nitrosamines which can cause cancer and is thus a very safe rubber additive. DTDC could replace DTDM due to its property.
