Product Name: Dibutyltin Dilaurate (DBTDL)
CAS Number: 77-58-7
Description
Dibutyltin Dilaurate (DBTDL), CAS 77-58-7, is an organotin compound widely recognized for its exceptional catalytic activity. It is highly effective in promoting reactions such as polyurethane formation (foams, elastomers, coatings), RTV silicone curing, and esterification processes. This versatile catalyst ensures efficient reaction rates and desired end-product properties. As a leading supplier, we provide high-purity DBTDL suitable for demanding industrial applications.
Properties
Property Description CAS Number 77-58-7 Chemical Formula C32H64O4Sn Synonyms DBTDL, Dibutylbis(lauroyloxy)tin Appearance Oily liquid or low-melting solid Color Colorless to pale yellow Solubility Soluble in many organic solvents (e.g., esters, ketones, alcohols, hydrocarbons); Insoluble in water Odor Faint, characteristic Density Approximately 1.05g/cm3 Key Characteristic Highly effective catalyst, particularly for urethanes & silicones Usage
Dibutyltin Dilaurate is primarily used as a catalyst in various chemical processes:
- Polyurethane Production: Acts as a key catalyst in the formation of polyurethane foams (flexible and rigid), coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers by accelerating the reaction between isocyanates and polyols.
- RTV Silicone Curing: Facilitates the room temperature vulcanization (curing) of silicone sealants and adhesives.
- Esterification & Transesterification: Used as a catalyst in the synthesis of esters.
- PVC Stabilizer: Can function as a heat stabilizer for polyvinyl chloride (PVC), although usage may be subject to regional regulations.
Packaging and Transportation
Our Dibutyltin Dilaurate is supplied in high-integrity packaging, such as steel drums, IBC totes, or smaller containers, based on order requirements, ensuring product stability and safety. Containers are tightly sealed to prevent contamination or leakage. Transportation is conducted in compliance with regulations for industrial chemicals, prioritizing safe and secure delivery.
Storage
Store Dibutyltin Dilaurate in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and incompatible materials (e.g., strong acids, strong bases, oxidizing agents). Keep containers tightly closed when not in use to prevent moisture ingress and maintain product quality. Follow recommended handling procedures for organotin compounds.
