Latex gloves require fast, ultra-accelerators with low skin-sensitization risk. ZDEC (zinc diethyldithiocarbamate) masterbatch is widely used in latex dipping; this guide covers REACH-compliant supply and dosing.
ZDEC provides fast cure at low temperature, ideal for latex glove dipping. As a dithiocarbamate, it is often paired with thiazole or thiuram types for balanced scorch and cure.
0.5–2.0 phr in latex compound (dry rubber basis). Exact level depends on dipping line and cure system; validate via lab cure test.
Supply with REACH, RoHS documentation and full SDS. Confirm specific substance compliance with your EU importer before shipment.
Natural latex gloves, dipped goods, balloons, condoms and other thin-walled latex products.
