Antioxidant MBZ is mainly used for NR, CR, EPR, SBR, NBR, its effect is similar to MB,  has the function of decomposing peroxides. Improved the effect of MB on latex instability, prolonged action time. With thiazole accelerators, have the effect of preventing copper damage. Antioxidant MBZ in latex is a good auxiliary heat sensitizer, is also a good gelling agent; It does not change color, commonly used in wire, cable, transparent light-colored products, also used as polyethylene, polypropylene heat stabilizer.

Antioxidant MBZ is MB as the main raw material to produce a derivative, while the earliest discovered MB from abroad, MB was the French Rubber Institute that published a lot of literature in the 1940s and 1950s, indicates that the antiaging agent MB is an effective metal passivator, It has no protective effect on the chain fracture of vulcanized rubber during aging, but it has obvious effect on the intermolecular bonding during aging.

Antioxidant MB has been used for more than 50 years in cable industry in China, the GB7594 rubber insulation XJ-10A is recommended to use MB, in the need to prevent "copper poisoning" rubber insulation also had better contain MB component. On the other hand, it has been used more and more in some synthetic rubber, such as ethylene propylene rubber and neoprene rubber. In China, most of the original ethylene propylene rubber insulation formula used anti-aging agents MB, MBZ, and RD, the effect is better.
