Chengdu Trustwell New Material Co., Ltd. is attending Rubber Expo 2017 showcase their cutting-edge technology for uniformly disperse graphene – a two dimension material has ultimate feature in hardness at meantime extra flexible to provide a new material for rubber reinforcement.
Since it has been discovered in 2004, graphene is regarded as a miracle which is 200 times stronger than steel yet can be folded as piece of paper. Scientists agreed graphene is an ideal material to use as reinforcement for rubber giving above outstanding features.
However, dispersing graphene into rubber material is a challenge and bottle neck for the application in rubber industry. It is too light to handle and as a nanometer material, graphene fakes tends to reunion during the process of dispersing and form a rather large scale in all 3 dimension therefore lose its 2D unique characters.
Trustwell® graphene pre-dispersed mater batch using latex mixing, in situ reduce technology accomplished for the first time uniformly dispersing whistling keeping graphene remains in 2 dimension structure by control GE flake no more than 3-layer-atom thickness.
“Our master batch contains only GE and matrix rubber make it very easy to be added into original formula, there is no solvent nor harmful particles make things easy” said the sales director Gao Feng, “We have entered into main applications including tire making, vibration absorbing, high speed train industries. GE pre-dispersed master batch provide new alternative for compounder to improve their formula and lift their feature.”
