Colloidal properties of different carbon black (CB) grades
Fourier Transform Rheology – an innovative Tool for the Characterization of recovered Carbon Black
Colloidal properties of different carbon black (CB) grades represented by their structure and specific surface area were characterized before and after pyrolysis. Additionally, rubber compounds produced with these fillers were investigated by Fourier Transform (FT) Rheology, since the nonlinear, rheological behavior of filled elastomers under specific conditions is associated with the filler-polymer interaction. For comparison, […] more...

Magnetic and mechanical Characterisation of Rubber bonded hard Ferrites Composites
The mechanical and magnetic properties of hard ferrite filled rubbers are investigated. Different compounds based on acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) and hydrogenated acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (HNBR) were manufactured and analysed. The magnetic fillers OP-71 from Dowa and FA-700 from Toda Kogyo were used. The compounds were mixed in an internal mixer and subsequently processed in […] more...
Verkürzte Entwicklung, zuverlässiger Prozess
Precise and Quick Face Mask Production With Virtual Molding
In der Kunststoffindustrie sind iterative Schritte in der Artikel- und Werkzeugentwicklung die Regel. Diese können durch Simulation deutlich verkürzt oder vermieden werden. Eine Simulation des Prozesses, egal ob es um die Auslegung eines neuen oder die Optimierung eines bestehenden Prozesses geht, spart nicht nur Kosten und Ressourcen, sie führt auch schneller zum Ziel – das ist wichtig, wenn der Termindruck hoch ist. more...
