7、 Test Method3.1 In an acid medium,MBTS is reduced with KI to MBTand free iodine.The free iodine is titrated with standard sodiumthiosulfate solution.3.2 MBTS is sparingly soluble in any organic solvent,whileMBT,formed during the reaction of MBTS with KI,is verysoluble.Therefore,after reagents are ad
8、ded as indicated in theprocedure,continue to stir until all MBTS has reacted.4.Significance and Use4.1 The test method is designed to assess the purity ofMBTS,which is used for rubber and latex vulcanizationacceleration.The amount of MBTS is of importance inpredicting performance in rubber compounds
