Rubber

Synthetic Rubber

Synthetic rubber serves as a substitute for natural rubber in many cases, especially when improved material properties are required. Quelaris offers:

  • SBR – Styrene Butadiene (BUNA® SBR).
  • BR- Polybutadiene (BUNA® CB).
  • Nitrile - Acrylonitrile Butadiene (KRYNAC®-PERBUNAN®-THERBAN®).
  • Nitrile Powder (BAYMOD®) Brake and PVC applications.
  • EPDM – Ethylene Propylene Diene (KELTAN®).
  • EPM– Ethylene Propylene (KELTAN®) Viscosity Improver for Lubricants.
  • CR- Chlorine Butadiene (BAYPREN®).
  • EVM- Ethylene vinyl acetate (LEVAPREN®).
  • Specialties.

Rubber
Natural

The rubber is obtained from the evea tree by means of a systematic treatment of "bleeding", which consists of making an angular cut through the bark going deep to the cambium and then collecting the latex, milky juice that flows slowly from the wound of the tree. The composition of latex varies in different parts of the tree. Quelaris offers you different types of natural rubber from recognized suppliers:

  • SR-10
  • SG20
  • RSS3

Chemicals

Rubber vulcanization requires the use of multiple products in its chemistry, including accelerators, sulfur donors, and activators. Each one has its function within the reaction, such as making the vulcanization process more or less fast and controlled, or improving properties of the final article. Quelaris offers a complete line of chemicals for the rubber industry:

  • Vulcanization accelerators.
  • Antioxidants for rubber, latex and chloroprene adhesive.
  • Predispersed and additives (Rhenogran® Rhenoslab® Santoweb®).
  • Process promoters (Aflux® Aktiplast® Rhenosin® Vulkanol® Rhenopren®).
  • Specialties and standard chemicals (Rhenocure® Rhenofit® Cohedur® Vulkasil®).
  • Zinc oxide (Zinkoxyd aktiv® Zinc Oxide Transparent® Bayoxide®).
  • Waxes, antiozonants (Antilux®).
  • Others (Rhenocure® Rhenofit® Cohedur® Vulkasil® Urepan® Rhenocure®).
  • Applications for latex (Coagulant, Emulvin®).
  • Anti adherent (PolyCoat).
