What is rubber car-Bon black?

The major focus of the rubber car-bon black business is on the tire circular economy. Our primary raw material is end-of-life tires (ELT). Under this pillar, we have developed two distinct product lines: ECORAX® Circular products are made from tire pyro-lysis oils (TPO) derived from ELT.

What is carbon black?

Carbon black consists more than 90% of pure form of elemental carbon, which is made up of tiny and mostly spherical carbon atoms fusing together in clusters referred to as aggregates. Several aggregates then group together as agglomerates which break up during rubber mixing period.

What are the benefits of a carbon black rubber?

The rubber filled with the treated carbon black results in higher modulus, heat build-up, hysteresis loss and several dynamic properties. The improvement can be attributed to a high charge density in surface, supplied by the proportion and nature of surface functional groups present on the surface of modified blacks.

What causes a crosslink between carbon black and rubber molecule?

From that time, some researchers started to believe that the crosslink at the interface of carbon black and rubber molecule was the result of chemical reactions between the acidic groups on the carbon black surface and the basic moieties within the rubber matrix.

What is the chemical bond between rubber matrix and carbon black?

As studied by Medalia and Kraus (1994), the chemical bond between rubber matrix and carbon black can be generated by the reaction of such double bonds and sulphur, olefins and radicals. However, the number of these bonds still can not be illustrated quantitatively until now.

What is a recycled carbon black?

Recycled carbon blacks are made from post-consumer recycled products. The major focus of the rubber car-bon black business is on the tire circular economy. Our primary raw material is end-of-life tires (ELT). Under this pillar, we have developed two distinct product lines:
