MXC-T120 Chemical Characteristics

Advanced Organotin Mercaptide Catalyst for Delayed Action & Precision Curing

Amber liquid MXC-T120 (CAS 1185-81-5) organotin catalyst in a beaker, known for excellent hydrolytic stability in polyurethane
Ming Xu Chem’s MXC-T120 (CAS 1185-81-5) is a highly active tin mercaptide catalyst offering extended shelf life in polyol blends.

MXC-T120 (Dibutyltin Dilaurylmercaptide) is a highly sophisticated organotin catalyst. Engineered specifically with sulfur-based ligands, it overcomes the limitations of standard metal carboxylates by providing exceptional hydrolytic stability and a precise delayed-action curing profile. It is the premier choice for demanding applications such as microcellular shoe soles, polyurethane elastomers, and rigid foams

Molecular Architecture & Hydrolytic Stability

The fundamental structural design of MXC-T120 resolves the common deactivation issues faced by traditional tin catalysts in moisture-rich environments:

  • Sulfur-Based Mercaptide Ligands: Unlike standard carboxylate-based catalysts (such as DBTDL), the incorporation of thiol-functionalized ligands chemically shields the active tin center, providing a highly controlled reactivity.

  • Exceptional Hydrolytic Stability: It powerfully resists degradation and deactivation when exposed to water or humid production environments, ensuring your formulation remains fully active and perfectly predictable.

 

Dynamic Curing Profile & Structural Integrity

For production managers handling complex molds, MXC-T120 eliminates critical processing bottlenecks through its unique two-stage reaction profile:

  • Controlled Induction Period: It offers a distinct delayed front-end action (upfront delay). This extends the pot life and maintains excellent liquid flowability, allowing the mixture to completely fill intricate shoe sole molds before gelation begins.

  • Rapid Back-End Cure: Once activated by the rising exothermic temperature, it triggers an exceptionally fast and thorough final cure, drastically reducing demolding times and boosting factory throughput.

  • Enhanced Cross-Linking Density: In rigid polyurethane foams and elastomers, it selectively drives the urethane reaction to ensure a highly uniform cell structure, superior mechanical strength, and excellent dimensional stability.

 

Process Efficiency & Operational Safety

We maintain rigorous quality control parameters to safeguard your formulation integrity and improve the environmental profile of your final consumer goods:

  • Guaranteed High Purity: A strict minimum Sn content (purity) of 98.0% ensures highly consistent batch-to-batch reaction kinetics, minimizing reject rates in high-speed manufacturing lines.

  • Low Volatility & Odor Reduction: With a strictly controlled volatile content of maximum 0.3%, it significantly reduces unpleasant odors in the final product—a critical requirement for consumer-facing goods like footwear and indoor applications.

  • Optimal Handling Safety: Supplied as a stable amber liquid with a high flash point of 121°C and a specific gravity of 1.02, it ensures safe handling and effortless integration into your automated liquid dosing systems.
