White powder; pleasant odor. Soluble in carbon
disulfide, benzene, and chloroform; insoluble
in water.
Zinc dibutyldithiocarbamate is used as activator; antidegradant; accelerator for natural rubber, butadiene, styrene-butadiene, nitrile-butadiene, butyl rubber, and ethyJene-propylene-diene terpolymers.
Zinc bis(dibutyldithiocarbamate) is a rubber chemical
used as a vulcanization accelerator. It can also be
found in paints, glue removers and anticorrosives. It
was contained in the "carba-mix".
Accelerator for latex dispersions and cements,
etc; ultra-accelerator for lubricating oil additive.
ChEBI: Zinc dibutyldithiocarbamate is a dithiocarbamate salt that is the zinc salt of dibutyldithiocarbamic acid. It has a role as an antifungal agrochemical. It is a dithiocarbamate salt and a zinc molecular entity. It contains a dibutyldithiocarbamate and a zinc(2+). It is functionally related to a dibutyldithiocarbamic acid.
Flammability and Explosibility
Non flammable
A rubber chemical, used as a vulcanization accelerator.
It can also be contained in paints, glue removers, and
anticorrosive. It was contained in “carba-mix.”
Poison by intraperitoneal route.Questionable carcinogen with experimental tumorigenicdata. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxicfumes of NOx, ZnO, and SOx.
