This work focused on studying the effect of dibenzyldithocarbamate vulcanization accelerator on the curing characteristics and performance of styrene–butadiene elastomer (SBR) filled with nanosized silica. A dibenzyldithocarbamate derivative was applied as an additional accelerator to enhance the efficiency and the rate of sulfur vulcanization in the presence of two other accelerators, i.e., N-cyclohexyl-2-benzothiazole sulfenamide (CBS) and/or 1,3-diphenylguanidine (DPG). Furthermore, the possibility of reducing the amount of zinc oxide (ZnO) and the elimination of CBS and DPG from elastomer compounds using dibenzyldithiocarbamate accelerator was tested. Dibenzyldithocarbamate derivative applied with other accelerators (especially CBS) effectively enhances the efficiency of SBR vulcanization by reducing the optimal vulcanization time and increasing the crosslink density of the vulcanizates despite the lower amount of ZnO. Moreover, vulcanizates with dibenzyldithocarbamate demonstrate higher tensile strength while having a smaller content of CBS or DPG compared to the reference SBR composites. Thus, the synergistic effect of dibenzydithiocarbamate derivative on the vulcanization and performance of SBR was confirmed. Furthermore, dibenzyldithocarbamate derivative enables the amount of ZnO to be reduced by 40% without harmful influence on the crosslink density and performance of the vulcanizates. Finally, it is possible to replace CBS with a dibenzyldithiocarbamate derivative without the crosslink density and tensile strength of the vulcanizates being adversely affected, while improving their resistance to thermo-oxidative aging.
