Rubber Antioxidant TMQ (RD): The Premier Cost-Effective Solution for Anti-Aging & Quality Upgrades
In the pursuit of high-quality development within the rubber industry, anti-aging performance has become the core metric determining the lifespan and safety of rubber products.
According to the 2025 Rubber Industry Development Report, the scrap rate of rubber products due to aging issues is as high as 18%, causing annual economic losses exceeding $4.5 billion globally. For critical applications like tires, seals, and conveyor belts, the demand for resistance to thermal oxidation and fatigue is higher than ever.
Rubber Antioxidant TMQ (RD) stands out as a high-efficiency, broad-spectrum solution. With its superior anti-aging properties, chemical stability, and unmatched cost-performance ratio, it is the material of choice for manufacturers looking to upgrade quality while lowering costs.
Core Advantages: Setting the Benchmark in Four Dimensions
1. Superior Thermal Oxidation Resistance: Extends Lifespan by 60%+
The core mechanism of TMQ (RD) involves capturing free radicals generated during the aging process, thereby inhibiting the chain reaction of thermal oxidation. This effectively delays degradation, cracking, and hardening.
- Proven Data: Tests by national quality supervision centers show that adding 1.5–2.5 parts of TMQ (RD) to NR, SBR, or NBR systems extends thermal oxidation life by over 60%.
- High-Temperature Performance: Durability at 120°C increases from the standard 500 hours to over 1,200 hours.
- Synergistic Effect: When used with Antioxidants 4010NA or 4020, efficiency improves by 30%-50%, making it adaptable to various harsh environments.
- Case Study: A major tire manufacturer reported that using TMQ (RD) in tread compounds increased abrasion resistance by 25%, extended tire mileage from 80,000 km to 130,000 km, and reduced market return rates by 40%.
2. Stable Vulcanization Assistance: +45% Uniformity in Cross-Linking
Beyond anti-aging, TMQ (RD) acts as a mild vulcanization agent. It accelerates the reaction between rubber and curing agents, optimizing the cross-linking network.
- Efficiency: Vulcanization time can be reduced by 15%-20%.
- Structural Integrity: Uniformity of cross-linking density improves by 45%, leading to a 10%-15% increase in tensile and tear strength.
- Eco-Compliance: Unlike traditional additives, TMQ (RD) generates no nitrosamines, fully complying with EU REACH and US FDA standards.
- Success Story: An automotive seal manufacturer increased product pass rates from 92% to 99.2% after switching to our TMQ (RD), successfully entering the global automotive supply chain.
3. Broad Compatibility: 95% Coverage of Rubber Scenarios
TMQ (RD) offers exceptional formulation versatility, making it suitable for a vast array of products, including tires, seals, conveyor belts, hoses, cable sheaths, and shock absorbers.
- Universal Fit: It is compatible with over 95% of rubber substrates (Natural and Synthetic).
- Stable Performance: Performs consistently across different filler systems (Carbon Black, Silica) without requiring major formula adjustments.
- Operational Efficiency: A comprehensive rubber enterprise reported that using TMQ (RD) increased formula universality by 60%, reduced R&D adjustment costs by 35%, and boosted production efficiency by 20%.
The Cost-Benefit Champion: Lower Costs, Higher Value
While delivering premium performance, Rubber Antioxidant TMQ (RD) offers significant economic advantages.
- Raw Material Savings: The unit price is 25%-30% lower than comparable high-end anti-aging agents.
- Low Dosage: Requires only small additions (1.5-2.5 parts) for maximum effect.
- Total ROI: Industry surveys indicate that manufacturers using TMQ (RD) reduce average raw material costs by 8%-12% and comprehensive production costs by 15%-20%.
Currently, TMQ (RD) serves over 800 rubber enterprises nationwide, with a customer repurchase rate of 98%, cementing its status as a market leader.
