6PPD Rubber Antioxidant Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- N-(1,3-Dimethylbutyl)-N'-Phenyl-P-Phenylenediamine
- Antioxidant 4020
- Rubber Antioxidant 6PPD
6PPD supplier for tyre, automotive and industrial rubber compounders in Malaysia. This p-phenylenediamine antidegradant is selected to protect natural and synthetic rubber against ozone cracking, oxidation, heat and flex-fatigue during service.
Commercial choices include powder, granules and low-dust or pre-dispersed forms. The correct option depends on the mixing system, dispersion target, permitted carrier and the compounder's approved specification rather than on the chemical name alone.
6PPD is used in tyre compounds, hoses, belts, seals, vibration-control parts and other dynamic rubber goods. It performs a different function from cure accelerators such as CBS, MBT and diphenylguanidine, although these ingredients may appear in the same compound formulation.
Send the required form, purity and physical controls, rubber application, quantity and delivery location. Availability, packing and documentation are confirmed with the quotation for the selected 6PPD grade.

6PPD grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Granular 6PPD | dark granules | — | General tyre and mechanical-rubber compounding where controlled feeding and reliable dispersion of the antidegradant are required. | Bag or pallet configuration is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Powder 6PPD | dark powder | — | Rubber formulations using powder charging or masterbatch preparation, with particle and handling requirements stated by the compounder. | Powder packing is confirmed for the quoted grade and quantity. |
| Low-dust or pre-dispersed 6PPD | granules or polymer-bound solid | — | Automated mixing and compounds seeking easier handling, reduced airborne dust and consistent incorporation into the rubber matrix. | Pack format is confirmed against the selected carrier and form. |

Common questions about 6PPD
What is 6PPD used for in rubber compounds?
6PPD protects rubber against ozone cracking and oxidative ageing. It is widely considered for tyres and dynamic mechanical goods such as hoses, belts and seals that experience heat, flexing and outdoor exposure.
Is 6PPD a rubber accelerator?
No. 6PPD is an antiozonant and antioxidant, while accelerators such as CBS, MBT and DPG alter sulphur cure behaviour. The compound formulation may use both functions, but they should be specified as separate ingredients.
Should I request powder, granules or a pre-dispersed grade?
Powder suits established manual or masterbatch charging, granules support cleaner metering, and pre-dispersed forms can improve handling in automated mixing. State the mixer, carrier restrictions and preferred physical form.
What specifications matter when buying 6PPD?
Compounders commonly control chemical identity, purity, melting behaviour, ash, particle form and any polymer carrier. Provide the approved material specification or sample-matching requirement with the enquiry.
Is 6PPD-quinone the same product as 6PPD?
No. 6PPD-quinone is a transformation product formed from 6PPD and is not the rubber antidegradant sold under this page. Enquiries for 6PPD should identify the parent additive and required grade directly.
