Function: Peptizer and processing promoter for elastomer compounds, especially based on natural rubber Use: Aktiplast PP has a peptizing effect in NR and IR at mixing temperatures >60 °C. It retards scorch and accelerates vulcanization. Aktiplast PP decreases the viscosity of compounds based on NR resulting in an easier processing. This leads to higher extrusion rates, better dimensional stability and a constant level of die swell. Aktiplast PP provides a good dispersion of the fillers and rubber chemicals in the compound. Depending on the composition of the mixture, Aktiplast PP improves scorch behavior, promotes vulcanization and makes demolding much easier, leaving the mold clean. Application: Tires, molded and extruded articles of all types, hard rubber Information provided by Lanxess. |
