product advantage
product application
1. Polymer Industry
Monomer Storage & Transportation: Added to acrylic monomers, methacrylic acid esters, and unsaturated olefins to prevent premature polymerization during long-term storage and cross-border logistics (sea/air freight).
Polymerization Process Control: Used as a chain terminator in batch polymerization to adjust the molecular weight distribution of acrylic resins, emulsions, and plastics, improving product consistency.
2. Lubricant & Grease Industry
Industrial Lubricants: Incorporated into engine oil, gear oil, and hydraulic oil as an antioxidant and anti-wear additive, extending lubricant service life by 30-50% and reducing mechanical equipment wear.
Greases: Enhances thermal stability and anti-corrosion performance of greases for automotive, machinery, and aerospace applications.
3. Rubber & Tire Industry
Vulcanization Acceleration: Shortens vulcanization time of natural rubber and synthetic rubber (styrene-butadiene rubber, nitrile rubber), improving production efficiency while enhancing the aging resistance and mechanical strength of rubber products.
Anti-Oxidant: Prevents rubber degradation caused by heat, oxygen, and UV radiation, extending the service life of tires, seals, hoses, and other rubber components.
4. Nanomaterial & Advanced Material Synthesis
Copper Sulfide Nanoparticles: Serves as a precursor for preparing CuS nanocrystals (10-50 nm) via thermal decomposition, used in photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes, solar cell materials, and conductive composites.
Polymer Nanocomposites: In-situ reduction in epoxy resins or plastics to produce Cu₂S/polymer nanocomposites with enhanced insulation, mechanical properties, and antimicrobial activity.
5. Metal Corrosion Protection
Industrial Cooling Systems: Added to cooling water and metal processing fluids as a corrosion inhibitor for steel, copper, and aluminum, forming a protective film to inhibit electrochemical corrosion.
Marine & Coastal Applications: Used in marine coatings and offshore equipment lubricants to resist saltwater corrosion, suitable for Southeast Asian and Middle Eastern coastal industrial zones.
6. Biomedical & Emerging Fields
Antimicrobial Coatings: Investigated for use in medical device coatings (catheters, surgical instruments) due to its inhibitory activity against drug-resistant bacteria (e.g., MRSA).
Pharmaceutical Research: Copper dithiocarbamate complexes are under clinical study for potential anticancer applications, targeting drug-resistant tumor cells as a novel therapeutic agent.
