TMTD Tetramethylthiuram Disulfide Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- TMTD
- TMT
- Thiram
- Tetramethylthiuram Disulphide
Tetramethylthiuram disulfide, commonly abbreviated TMTD, is a thiuram accelerator and sulphur donor used in rubber and latex compounding. Buyers seeking a TMTD supplier in Malaysia may also encounter the names tetramethylthiuram disulphide, accelerator TT or thiram for the same chemical identity.
Market forms include white to cream powder, oil-treated granules and polymer-bound or pre-dispersed masterbatches. The selected form should match the compound's dosing and carrier requirements, with the relevant grade specification and document needs stated on the enquiry.
TMTD is used as a primary or secondary accelerator in dry-rubber and latex cure systems and as a sulphur donor in selected formulations. Applications include gloves and other dipped goods, tyres, footwear, general moulded rubber products and rubber-based adhesives.
This page does not combine TMTD with TMTM, ZDMC, ZDEC, dicumyl peroxide or elemental sulphur, all of which are different curing chemicals. The thiram name identifies the same substance, but agricultural use and registration guidance are outside this industrial rubber-page scope.

Tetramethylthiuram Disulfide applications
Common questions about tetramethylthiuram disulfide
What is TMTD used for in rubber compounding?
TMTD is used as an accelerator, a secondary accelerator with other cure systems, and a sulphur donor in specified rubber and latex formulations.
Is TMTD the same chemical as thiram?
Yes. Thiram is another name for tetramethylthiuram disulfide, although this page is focused on industrial rubber and latex grades rather than agricultural use guidance.
Which physical forms can buyers request?
Common market forms include powder, oil-treated granules and polymer-bound or pre-dispersed masterbatches. State the carrier system when a masterbatch is required.
Is TMTD interchangeable with TMTM, ZDMC or ZDEC?
No. These are different accelerator identities and a compound formulation should retain the exact chemical and grade specified.
What information is needed for a quotation?
Provide the form, specification, quantity, delivery location and required documents. Availability, packing and the document set are confirmed with the quotation.
