Application

  • 2-Imidazolidinethione has been used as a source of nitrogen and sulfur in the preparation of heteroatom functionalized carbon dots with enhanced photoluminescence (PL) emissions.
  • It is a precursor for the synthesis of gel-polymer electrolyte based on cross-linked polyepichlorohydrin terpolymer (GECO), which can be used in lithium-sulfur batteries.
  • It is also used as a vulcanization accelerator in the preparation of styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and rubber composites.
