Product Description: TMTD-MG offers the rubber chemist a handy, low dusting form of TMTD. The novel micro-granular consistency provides outstanding dispersion while limiting plant personnel to unnecessary hazardous exposure. The MG particles are oil free and exhibit a very high chemical purity. TMTD-MG is recommended for use in soft rubber compounds, where poor dispersion can not be tolerated. Application: TMTD-MG is a very active, sulfur-bearing, non-discoloring rubber accelerator for use in NR, SBR, NBR, EPDM and other rubber elastomers or blends. For most compounding applications, TMTD-MG requires the addition of zinc oxide and a 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-MG contains 13% available sulfur. It is often used to activate thiazole or sulfenamide cure systems. Improved scorch resistance can be obtained in TMTD-MG stocks by the use of the thiazole or sulfenamide accelerators as primary accelerators. TMTD-MG can be used as a cure modifier in carbon black loaded CR formulations to improve scorch properties. TMTD-MG is a white micro granule. Information provided by Akrochem Corporation |
