RDAbbott will exhibit at Rubber Division, ACS’ 2022 Spring Technical Meeting. This year’s event is scheduled for April 26 through April 28 at the Marriott Cleveland East in Warrensville Heights, Ohio.

Taking advantage of the strengths of both liquid silicone rubber (LSR) and fluorosilicone technologies, Dow has a range of fully fluorinated LSRs that can provide desirable process efficiencies of LSR to be integrated with the fluid resistance performance capabilities of a fluorosilicone. This live webinar will provide a comprehensive overview of the unique properties, ease of processing, and key applications for Dow’s SILASTIC™ Fluoro Liquid Silicone Rubber (F-LSR) products.

Cancarb makes a thermal carbon black, Thermax® N990CG, with low levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), substances that are listed as carcinogens. Production of this rubber additive also helps Cancarb’s local community to reduce its fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

RDAbbott has successfully moved its headquarters from Cerritos, California, to our new location at 11958 Monarch Street in Garden Grove. Although we moved just eight miles, the effort was considerable, and the results demonstrated the value of teamwork.

RDAbbott will exhibit, deliver a technical presentation, and provide the closing address at Rubber News’ 2022 International Silicone Conference. The conference is scheduled for May 10 and 11 at the Sheraton Suites Akron in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.

RDAbbott Canada, Ltd. will showcase materials and technologies for the mining industry at the CIM Convention & Expo in Vancouver, Canada, in Booth #1705 this spring.

Join us on Thursday, April 28, 2022, from 2:00 – 3:00 PM (ET) for a free webinar about Cancarb Thermax N990, the largest particle size, lowest structure thermal carbon black on the market. In this presentation, you’ll learn how replacing some furnace black with Thermax N990 can lead to improvements in mixing and processing while maintaining physical properties.

RDAbbott will exhibit at the 2022 Spring Technical Meeting of the Rubber Division, ACS, a division of the American Chemical Society. This year’s event is scheduled for April 26 through April 28 at the Marriott Cleveland East in Warrensville Heights, Ohio, near the popular Beachwood area.
