Accelerator A-1
Applications :
- Accelerator A-1 is a slow curing accelerator, but with a marked tendency to scorch. It’s use is mainly restricted to special purposes, such as curing bags and repair materials.
- It gives vulcanizates with good ageing properties, but tends to stain white rubber. Inhalation of the dust should be avoided.
- It is a non-discolouring accelerator for use in Neoprene (CR) latex, Natural Rubber, EPDM sponge applications and many other elastomers.
- It provides rapid acceleration and can be used in latex and cement applications.
- It provides safe cures with flat curing plateaus (no marching modulus).
- It activates thiazole accelerators and can be used in light coloured compounds since it is essentially non-discolouring.
