The aqueous dispersion of oxy normal butyl tlllOCElIbtJIllC acid disulphide may be simply stirred 1nto ithe latex and distributed uniformly throughout the latex, 1% on the weight of the rub her being a sufiicient quantity of the disulphide. Inasmuch as the disulphide possesses a substantially neutral reaction, 1t may be added to rubber latex without fear of its causing coagulation or any other deleterious reactions in the latex.

Evil smellin rubbers may be soaked in a dispersion o oxy normal butyl thiocarbonic acid disulphide containing 1 part of the disulphide per 100 parts of water. Pref-- erably the rubber to be treated is not more than A in thickness.

While in general the substances which are subject to decomposition comprise animal or vegetable proteinogenous bodies, such as flesh and vegetation, it is understood that the invention is not limited to the application of this new class of deodorizers to the materials above mentioned.

Instead of'oxy normal butyl thiocarbonic acid disulphide, the following compounds may be emplo ed: oxy ethyl thiocarbonlc acid disulphi e, dithiobenzoyldisulphlde, benzoyl peroxide, acid anhydrides or thioacid anhydrides, tetra sulphides prepared by the interaction ofsulphur chloride with salts of non-nitrogenous dithioacids. Benzoyl peroxide is somewhat soluble in water and may be employed therefore in an aqueous solution. Furthermore its decomosition products are substantially odoress, whereas oxy normal butyl thiocarbonio acid disulphide may give rise to some odor, although this will not be as strong as those of the phenols, etc.

The property of deodorizing the putrefaction roducts of nitrogenous material is exhibite by compounds of the type RENE/351R where (R'),(JR'

I claim and desire to protect by Letters Patent is:

1. The process of deodorizing the putre faction products of nitrogenous material which consists in adding to such material compounds of the type where R and R represent non-nitrogenous substitutions, R at least one atom of the oxygen group and w and 3 any bivalent substitution. v

2. The process of deodorizing the putrefaction products of nitrogenous material which consists in adding to such material compounds of the type RC(S,)OR', I
