STRUKTOL® A 50

STRUKTOL® A 50 by Struktol is a processing additive for natural and synthetic rubber. It is a zinc fatty acid derivative. It improves reversion resistance and produces vulcanizates which display greater resilience and tear strength. STRUKTOL® A 50 is used without fear of bloom or adverse effect on rubber to metal or rubber-to-rubber adhesion due to it’s higher level of solubility. It shows polymer chain lubricating effect, lower viscosities under shear and enhanced flow rates. For solution SBR, compound viscosities are reduced while flow rates & reversion resistance are improved. This product also provides easier mixing & extrusion of compounds based on solution SBR. It enhances mold flow and mill roll release. Recommended dosage level is 3-5 phr. The shelf life of this product is 18 months.
