  • How vulcanization accelerator is used in rubber goods manufacture?
  • CBS is exclusively used as vulcanization accelerator in rubber goods manufacture. Vulcanization transforms the rubber from the thermoplastic into the elastomeric state at temperatures between 150 and 200 °C. CBS is loaded to the rubber in concentrations of 0.5– 1% (ww) but it breaks down during the curing process.
  • Does CBS affect the processing of rubber goods?
  • Due to the resulting low concentration of CBS, a considerable exposure to CBS during the processing of rubber goods is not expected. Therefore, the processing of rubber, e.g. cutting, melting, is not considered in this report. Occupational exposure limits for CBS have not been established in Western Europe and USA.
  • Who is liable if a customer uses akrochem products?
  • Akrochem will not be liable for any cost, loss or damage, in tort, contract or otherwise, arising from customer's use of Akrochem products or Technical Information. It is the customer's sole responsibility to test the products and any Technical Information provided to determine whether they are suitable for the customer's needs.
  • How much CBS can be retained in a rubber product?
  • Taking into account that the maximum concentration of CBS in the uncured compounds is 3.5 % (technical rubber), the amount of CBS that can be retained in the finished product is limited to 0.2 %. Due to the resulting low concentration of CBS, a considerable exposure to CBS during the processing of rubber goods is not expected.
