Rubber Accelerator TMTD (TT)
Rubber Accelerator TMTD, commonly known as TT, is a white or light grayish powder with a subtle sulfur-like odor. It is soluble in benzene, chloroform, and carbon disulfide, and exhibits slight solubility in alcohol and gasoline. TMTD is insoluble in water. With characteristics such as low toxicity, stability, and easy dispersibility, TMTD enhances the curing process, optimizing physical properties like wear resistance, flexibility, and adhesion.
Its controlled vulcanization and reduced cure time contribute to improved production efficiency, while the compound’s impact on rheology aids in precise molding. TMTD’s environmental resistance and enhanced aging properties ensure the longevity of rubber goods. Trust TMTD for accelerated vulcanization, superior dynamic properties, and reliable performance in a range of industries.

- Stability: TMTD exhibits stability during storage and handling, ensuring that its effectiveness is preserved over time. This stability contributes to consistent product quality and reliable performance in various rubber applications.
- Moderate Scorch Safety: TMTD offers moderate scorch safety, meaning it provides a reasonable processing window before vulcanization starts. This characteristic allows for flexibility in processing and minimizes the risk of premature curing or scorching during manufacturing.
- Resistance to Water and Heat: The vulcanizates produced with TMTD typically demonstrate good resistance to water and heat. This property enhances the durability and performance of rubber products, especially in applications where exposure to environmental factors is a consideration.
- Low Toxicity: TMTD is known for its relatively low toxicity, which contributes to its safe handling during manufacturing processes. This characteristic aligns with health and safety regulations and standards in industrial settings.
- Easy Dispersibility: TMTD exhibits good dispersibility within rubber formulations, allowing for uniform distribution during the mixing stage. This ease of dispersion contributes to the homogeneity of the rubber compound and, consequently, the consistency of the final product.
- Reduced Heat Buildup: In applications such as tire manufacturing, TMTD’s acceleration properties contribute to reduced heat buildup during the vulcanization process. This is crucial for maintaining the structural integrity of the rubber and preventing issues such as thermal degradation.
- Improvement of Dynamic Properties: TMTD contributes to the improvement of dynamic properties in rubber compounds, including fatigue resistance and flexibility. This makes it valuable in applications where rubber components undergo repetitive or dynamic stress, such as in tires and other automotive parts.
- Controlled Vulcanization: TMTD provides controlled vulcanization, allowing for precise regulation of the curing process. This is advantageous in achieving specific properties in the final rubber product, tailoring it to meet the requirements of different applications.
