Composition: SPRINTAN™ SLR 4630–Schkopau is manufactured by anionic solution polymerization using an organo-lithium initiator. In relation to solid rubber the grade is extended with 37.5 parts of TDAE oil which complies with the EU Directive 2005/69/EC for use in tire application. The product has a medium styrene/high vinyl micro structure and a typical glass transition temperature of -28 °C. SPRINTAN™ SLR 4630–Schkopau is partially Si-coupled and contains a non-staining stabilizer. Application: SPRINTAN™ SLR 4630–Schkopau provides an excellent balance between good wet traction and low rolling resistance for silica- and/or carbon black- filled tire tread compounds for summer -, winter -, and all season tires. Synthos acquired the synthetic rubber business from Trinseo in 2021. |
