Applications of Rubber Accelerators in Different Types of Rubber

Apr 04, 2026 Leave a message

1. Natural Rubber: Natural rubber is extracted from the sap of rubber trees. It is soft and has good elasticity. Due to its slow vulcanization rate, ketone-amine accelerators are often used to accelerate the vulcanization process. Simultaneously, the heat resistance and aging resistance of natural rubber can be improved with suitable accelerators.

 

2. Butadiene Rubber: Butadiene rubber is a common synthetic rubber, widely used in tires and shoe soles due to its good abrasion resistance and tear resistance. Thioamine accelerators are typically used for butadiene rubber during vulcanization because they maintain a stable accelerating effect at higher temperatures.

 

3. Isoprene Rubber: Isoprene rubber is a synthetic rubber with excellent physical properties, commonly used in the manufacture of inner tubes and seals. For isoprene rubber, using organic peroxides as accelerators can effectively improve its thermal stability and aging resistance, while also ensuring uniformity during the vulcanization process.

 

4. Styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR): SBR is widely used in the automotive and light industries. Its weather resistance and abrasion resistance make it an important ingredient in rubber shoes and cables. By selecting appropriate thioamine accelerators, the physical properties of SBR can be significantly improved.

 

5. Reclaimed rubber: Reclaimed rubber is a material obtained by processing and recycling waste rubber. It has the advantages of low cost and being economical and environmentally friendly. Adding rubber accelerators during the processing of reclaimed rubber can not only improve vulcanization efficiency but also improve the performance of the final product.
