Dimethyltin Laurylmercaptide
Catalyst for Various Polyurethane Foams and Other Applications
Dimethyltin laurylmercaptide (DMTLM) is an organotin catalyst and stabilizer. The colorless to pale yellow liquid has a typical odor and is soluble in most organic solvents but completely insoluble in water. It offers particularly good hydrolytic stability.
It is used as a catalyst for rigid polyurethane foams, molded foams, flexible hybrid urethane foams and water-based 2-component polyurethanes. In some foamed polyurethanes it is employed as an activator component in combination with other catalysts.
DMTLM can also be used for the catalysis of microcellular elastomers, in rigid PVC materials or to stabilize organic polymers.
