Vulcanization Accelerators

Sulfur, by itself, is a slow vulcanizing agent. Large amounts of sulfur are necessary high temperature and long heating periods and one obtains an unsatisfactory crosslinking efficiency with unsatisfactory strength and aging properties. The multiplicity of vulcanization effects demanded can not be achieved with one universal substance, a large number of diverse materials is necessary. Accelerators need metal oxides for the development of their full activity, zinc oxide (ZnO)  is the best additive.

The most important organic vulcanization accelerators can be summarized in the following classes.

  • Aw, this was a really great post. In theory I’d like to write like this too – taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never seem to get anything done.

  • I want to thank the blogger very much not only for this post but also for his all previous efforts. I found http://www.rubberthailand.com to be extremely interesting. I will be coming back to http://www.rubberthailand.com for more information.

  • enquiry:

    Dear Sirs
    May we know whether you produce Thermoplastic styrene-butadiene rubber (SBS) 1401 and whether you export it to China?
    Our company located in Hengshui, Hebei province, China, deals in import and export businesses. Recently, we intend to import rubber of that type. We are delighted to know that your company is professional at rubber export.
    Could you please inform us of your reply, plus sales terms and conditions? We are sure what you provide would be helpful for us.
    Thank you in advance for your kind cooperation.
    Faithfully yours
