Select Accelerators for Rubbers
Accelerators are added in small amounts to speed up the curing of adhesives by reducing the cure time and temperature of elastomers, particularly latex systems. Selection of an accelerator will depend on the specific vulcanizing system and curing properties.
Explore the classification of accelerators, the checklist to select the right accelerator based on the specific vulcanizing systems and curing properties. Review:

Polymers and Additives for Pressure Sensitive Adhesives
Pressure sensitive adhesives, when in the dry state, are aggressively tacky at room temperature and possess a high degree of "quick stick" or initial grab. They can adhere to a variety of dissimilar materials without the need for much more than slight pressure. Often the pressure is applied by hand, but rollers, presses, and other mechanical devices can also be used.
There’s always a scope for tailored performance for a particular high-end application. But, how to select the right additive for your requirement?
