Rubber & Tire Additives Reinforcing Fillers & Performance Boosters
Rubber and Tire Additives Supplier for Reinforced Compounds
KOSNANO omaterials are widely used in the rubber and tire industries. Our silica, zinc oxide are the three most widely used and important nanomaterials in the rubber and tire industries. They respectively build the technical foundation of modern high-performance rubber and tires, especially “green tires”, from the three core aspects of reinforcement and resistance reduction, activated vulcanization and anti-aging.
Nanomaterials specifically for Rubber & Tire Additives
silica powder – greatly enhances the tear resistance, wear resistance and mechanical strength of rubber. zinc oxide powder – As a vulcanization activator, it reduces the dosage of vulcanizing agents, enhances vulcanization efficiency, and improves the tensile stress at a given elongation, elasticity and durability of rubber. Alumina Powder – Enhances the wear resistance of rubber, increases its thermal conductivity, and simultaneously improves the hardness and scratch resistance of the surface of rubber products. iron oxide powder – is used in colored rubber products and can also serve as a reinforcing filler for some special requirements. Nano-dispersion liquid – effectively improves uneven dispersion. Nanoparticles will agglomerate by themselves, forming stress defect points and enhancing product performance
What factors can affect its use in the rubber and tire industries?
When choosing nanomaterials for the tire rubber industry, please consider the following factors to ensure that they meet the application requirements of your products. Particle size and specific surface area. The smaller the particle size, the larger the specific surface area, and the greater the contact area with rubber molecules. Surface properties and modification determine the compatibility of the material with rubber, hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity, and are also key factors for application in tires. Purity and impurities: High purity is the prerequisite for ensuring the long-term durability of rubber products. For instance, in terms of crystal structure, for nano-titanium oxide, the rutile type has better light stability and UV shielding ability than the anatase type. Besides, processing and performance, as well as cost factors, also need to be taken into consideration. If you need more information, please contact our engineers
