  • Polymer materials and polymer industry

  1. Crosslinking agents and modifiers: used in the synthesis of polyurethane, epoxy resins, through the participation of sulfhydryl groups in the reaction to improve the flexibility of the material or heat resistance rubber processing

  2. As a vulcanization accelerator, to enhance the elasticity and durability of rubber.

  • Surface treatment and metal protection

  1. Metal corrosion inhibitor: mercapto group can form stable complex with metal ions (such as copper, silver), used in plating solution or metal surface treatment to prevent oxidation.

  2. Self-assembled single molecule membranes (SAMs): form ordered film layers on the surface of gold, silver, etc. for sensors or nanotechnology.

  • Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology

  1. Cross-protein modification: sulfhydryl groups can react with disulfide bonds or amino groups of proteins for drug coupling (e.g., antibody-drug couplers, ADCs) or biomarkers.

  2. Antioxidants: as free radical scavengers, with possible use in cosmetics or pharmaceutical formulations (subject to rigorous safety assessment).

  • Chemical synthesis and catalysts

  1. Intermediates for organic synthesis: used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, pesticides (e.g., insecticides) or other sulfur-containing compounds.

  2. Ligands or catalysts: used as ligands in transition metal-catalyzed reactions to modulate reaction activity.
