Product Description: Akroform® HMT-80/EPR/P is an 80% polymeric dispersion of hexamethylenetetramine (HMT) in EPR binder. HMT is typically used with resorcinol (along with silica) to make rubber-to-fabric adhesion possible. Suggested use is 1.6 phr active HMT, 2.5 phr active resorcinol, and at least 10-15 phr silica to bond rubber formulas to nylon, cotton, and activated polyester. HMT is also an efficient activator/accelerator for sulfenamides and thiazoles. Pelletized form allows easy weight-up and incorporation as well as protecting workers from HMT skin irritation. Advantages: Polymer bound or encapsulated dispersions are a proven means of upgrading plant safety, efficiency, quality & raw material control. Akrochem polymer bound or encapsulated chemical dispersions eliminate any irritating dust, as well as other potential hazards in handling powders in the plant. The physical form is easy to handle and weigh accurately. With a dispersion, better uniformity of the mix at lower processing temperatures is possible. Information provided by Akrochem Corporation |
