What is Anti-Aging?

The term "Anti-Aging" means "against aging." Medically, Anti-Aging can be described as taking active measures or protective medicine. Anti-Aging is applied to slow down aging as much as possible and ensure that the body ages proportionally and healthily as a whole.

What is the Purpose of Anti-Aging?

The primary goal of Anti-Aging treatments is to reduce visible signs of aging and support a more youthful appearance. The benefits of Anti-Aging can be listed as follows. Anti-aging types include TMQ and ZMTI. Let's examine these Anti-Aging types individually.

What is TMQ?

TMQ, an anti-aging agent, is an antioxidant with relatively weak color change and fading properties. It provides excellent protection against temperature effects in natural rubber, IR rubber, BR rubber, SBR rubber, NBR rubber, and EPDM, but is less suitable for CR rubber. Its effect is enhanced when used with Vulkanox MB2 or ZMB2, and it is particularly effective in products vulcanized with Thiuram and with low or no sulfur content. TMQ also provides protection against various rubber product contaminants.

TMQ is soluble in organic solvents like benzene, acetone, etc., slightly soluble in petroleum hydrocarbons, and insoluble in water. TMQ is an amber-brown powder or granules with a specific gravity of 1.05. It is soluble in benzene, chloroform, carbon disulfide, and acetone, but insoluble in water. It has low toxicity and low pollution but is flammable. Keep away from fire and moisture during storage and transportation.

Application: TMQ is commonly used in tires, rubber galoshes, rubber hoses, adhesive tapes, electrical wires, cables, and other rubber products.

Packaging: 25 kg bags.

Storage: Store in a cool, well-ventilated place with the container tightly closed, and prevent exposure to the product. Avoid direct sunlight.

TMQ

TMQ is a type of Anti-Aging with the following properties and applications:

Properties: TMQ Anti-Aging is pale yellow to amber powder or fine. It is non-toxic and insoluble in water but soluble in benzene, chloroform, acetone, and carbon disulfide. It is a petroleum hydrocarbon with micro-solubility. TMQ has a specific gravity of 1.05, low toxicity, and low pollution. This product is flammable. Keep away from fire and moisture during storage and transportation.

Applications: TMQ is an excellent general-purpose ammonia aging agent. It is especially suitable for full steel and semi-steel medium radial tires and is widely used in tire tubes, rubber bands, rubber galoshes, and many other industrial rubber applications. It is also suitable for emulsion products. Commonly used in tires, rubber galoshes, rubber hoses, adhesive tapes, electrical wires, cables, and other rubber products.

Packaging and Storage: Packaged in 25 kg paper bags with PE liners. TMQ should be stored in a well-ventilated, dry, and cool place. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight.

What Is ZMTI?

ZMTI's molecular name is C16H14N4S2Zn. The CAS number is 61617-00-3. Its chemical name is Zinc 2-Mercaptomethyl benzimidazole. It appears as a gray-white powder. It is non-toxic, odorless, but has a more bitter taste.

ZMTI is one of the non-polluting antioxidant varieties similar to performance and antioxidant MBZ used in NR, SBR, BR, and other synthetic rubbers. It has a clear anti-thermal aging effect and has a synergistic effect with Amin and phenol antioxidants to enhance resistance to aging from heat and oxygen. It can be used in nitrile rubber. When used with accelerator M and DM, it has a function to prevent accelerated aging caused by harmful metals. It is generally used for transparent rubber products, light-colored, and bright-colored rubber products. The effect on curing properties is clearly less than MB, so it is not necessary to adjust the curing system for this product. It can also be used as a fine-tuning agent in natural latex foam products. It equals the foam structure and has a better effect than MB.

Applications: Used in natural rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber, nitrile butadiene rubber, butyl rubber, and synthetic rubbers, with a clear anti-thermal aging effect. Typically used in combination with amine and phenolic antioxidants for synergistic effects, improving heat and oxygen aging properties. It can be used in nitrile butadiene rubber to block the role of harmful metals in accelerating aging when used with accelerator M and DM. Commonly used in transparent rubber products, light-colored, and colored rubber products.

Packaging: Wrapped with PE plastic film and extruded paper bag. Net weight per bag is 10 kg.

Storage: The product should be stored in a dry, cool place with good ventilation. Avoid exposure of packaged products to direct sunlight. The storage period is 24 months from the production date.
