Thermax® N990 replaced N550 in an EPDM coolant hose compound resulting in improved dispersion and processing properties while maintaining excellent heat and fluid resistance.
Continue readingBIIR Inner Liner Compound
Thermax® N990 replaced N660 in a BIIR inner liner compound resulting in improved processing and reduced permeability.
Continue readingEvolmer Compound
Thermax® N990 replaced N330 in an Evolmer compound resulting in improved dispersion and better oil and fuel resistance.
Continue readingConveyor Belt
Thermax® N990 partially replaced N234 in a NR/BR conveyor belt compound resulting in decreased viscosity and hysteresis.
Continue readingPolypropylene Pigment
Thermax® N990 was added to polypropylene at pigment loading levels. The capability of N990 to act as a UV stabilizer was evaluated using xenon arc weathering tests.
Continue readingFlame Retardant EVM
Thermax® N990 was added to a flame retardant EVM compound resulting in improvements in processability and a reduction in compound cost.
Continue readingSilicone Pigment
Thermax® N990UP and N991UP were added to a silicone compound. The masstone and tint colors were compared to those produced by black iron oxide and a low color furnace black.
Continue readingN990 and N907 Comparison
Thermax® N990 and Thermax® N907 were added to CR and EPDM compounds. N907 offers lower extractable organics content while providing the same processing and physical properties as N990.
Continue readingColoured Glass Production
Thermax® N990 was added as a reducing agent during coloured glass production. The high purity and greater surface area of N990 mean less carbon source can be used while providing consistent colour quality.
