What Is 2-Mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT)?
2-Mercaptobenzothiazole is used as an accelerator in rubber vulcanization systems. Three supplied grades differ in minimum melting point, loss on drying and sieve residue; the ash limit is common. Compare cure behavior, dispersion and the complete accelerator package through compound trials. The substance is a skin sensitizer and environmentally hazardous, so avoid contact and contain dust or spills.
The High, first and standard grades grade is supplied as yellow to grayish-white powder or granules. The specification table, TDS and SDS on this page cover the main purchasing parameters. For a quotation, send the application, quantity and destination.
