N-Nanbrol® Masterbatch puts Nano Reinforcement in Any NBR Compound.
Customers always want more; more tear strength, more low-strain modulus, longer elongation. Now you can give your customers more of everything by giving them access to nano-filler reinforcement technology.
Using N-Nanbrol® high fill masterbatch, you can add pre-dispersed nano-fillers to your existing compound to great effect. N-Nanbrol® high density master batches are 80 phr nano-fill concentration, and can be optimized for peroxide cure systems.
N-Nanbrol® high density nano-fill masterbatch.
We obtained results we can share when working with a customer recently. These results pertain to a roller compound that is in production today. Our results, that we believe are typical, can be downloaded here (pdf).
We succeeded best with higher nano-fill formulations. The modulus numbers increased by over 10% using Nanbrol® S and a whopping 25% with Nanbrol® P masterbatch at 16 PHR nano-fill.
No issues were raised in regards to MDR data, tensile strength, durometer or compression set because even those measures that did not move positively, moved only slightly or not at all when Nanbrol® was added.
Finally, we tested the plaques for abrasion resistance. At 16 PHR nano-fill we achieved a 20+% improvement over the NBR compound currently in use with N-Nanbrol® P masterbatch, and the improvement was over 30% with N-Nanbrol® S! We achieved this together with significantly improved modulus, tensile, and tear while not degrading durometer or compression set. Elongation was reduced by about 10% using N-Nanbrol® P masterbatch but increased by 10% with N-Nanbrol® S.
N-Nanbrol® high density masterbatch achieved improved abrasion resistance together with other significantly improved physical properties while not degrading durometer or compression set. We believe it can do the same for your NBR compounds. Black or white fill, soft or hard, peroxide or sulfur cured, N-Nanbrol® makes them all tougher AND easier to process.
