MBTS (DM) (Di-Benzothiazole Disulfide) (Powder & Granules)

It is a gray-white powder or granule. Its density is 1.45–1.54. It is soluble in chloroform and partially soluble in ethyl acetate, water, and gasoline. It cures at a normal to moderately fast rate in natural and synthetic rubber. It is also used in a wide variety of general-purpose rubbers. It does not stain or discolor white rubbers. It is used as a plasticizer/retarder in polychloroprene rubber. Secondary acceleration is generally required for synthetic polymers. It exhibits better flame resistance than MBT.
