| Product Description: TMTD is a very active, sulfur-bearing, non-discoloring rubber accelerator for use in NR, SBR, NBR, EPDM as well as other rubber elastomers and blends. For most compounding applications, TMTD requires the addition of zinc oxide and fatty acid for effective use. 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. 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.Information provided by Akrochem Corporation |
