Rubber Accelerators
Rubber Accelerators
(OP)
Dear all,
I have a problem with unpleasant odor of accelerator using with SBR.
We’ve been using MBTS and TMTD and we were very satisfied. Unfortunately we're not allowed to use MBTS anymore and we have to find alternative.
But all combination of accelerators I've tried has unpleasant odor.
- ZBEC + ZADP
- ZBEC + PO
- ZBEC + TMTD
- ZBEC + TBzTD
- PO + TMTD
- ZADP + TMTD
CBS and DPG - I can't use them bacause they can't be used for white and light colors
Does any of you have any suggestion what kind of accelerator should I try?
Thank you,
Lea

For now I solved the problem with Zeolite but I will try suggested combinations of accelerators too.
The real problem is with MBT which was found in our products (MBTS decomposes on MBT) and is not allowed. That's why I decided to change the accelerator as I don't know the mechanism of the reaction and I want to make sure that there won't be MBT anymore in our products.

We're in footwear industry and the problem with MBT is in its skin sensitisation http://ec.europa.eu/health/archive/ph_risk/committ...
RE: Rubber Accelerators
The risk of sensitisation from exposure to MBT released from natural rubber soothers and teats is negligible.
