Organic chemical accelerators were not used until 1906, 65 years
after the Goodyear-Hancock development of unaccelerated vulcanisation, when the
effect of aniline on sulfur vulcanisation was discovered by Oenslayer.
Aniline, however, is too toxic for use in rubber products. Its
less toxic reaction product with carbon disulfide, thiocarbanilide, was
introduced as an accelerator in 1907. Further developments led to guanidine
accelerators. Reaction products formed between carbon disulfide and aliphatic
amines (dithiocarbamates) were first used as accelerators in 1919. These were
and still are the most active accelerators in respect to both crosslinking
rates and extent of crosslink formation. However, most dithiocarbamate
accelerators give little or no scorch resistance and therefore cannot be used
in all applications.
The first delayed action accelerators were introduced in 1925
with the development of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) and
2-mercaptobenzothiazole disulfide (or 2,2´- dithiobisbenzothiazole) (MBTS).
Even more delayed action and yet faster-curing vulcanisation became possible in
1937 with the introduction of the first commercial benzothiazolesulfenamide
accelerator. Further progress was made in 1968 with the introduction of
pre-vulcanisation inhibitor (PVI), N-cyclohexylthiophthalimide (CTP),
which can be used in small concentrations together with benzothiazole
sulfenamide accelerators.
