Insoluble sulphur refers as a curing agent for the majority of the rubber industry. By keeping insoluble sulphur dispersed in the oil, any risk of conversion is lowered, while still facilitating the incorporation of the curing agent into the rubber compound. It is a necessary and best vulcanizing agent for radial tires, expressly for the rubber tread compound vulcanization. Insoluble sulfur is an important rubber additive agent. It improves product quality, wearability and resistance to both fatigue and ageing.
