Electrical resistivity is an important property for various EPDM applications, such as wire and cable, battery and fuel cell gaskets, and automotive profiles. To achieve the specified electrical resistivity values in these applications, it is necessary to replace smaller particle size furnace blacks with mineral fillers and/or larger particle size carbon blacks. Join us on June 7, 2023, from 2:00 – 3:00 PM (ET) to hear the results of Cancarb’s technical study that compared blends of hard clay, Thermax® N990, and N550, and evaluated how the size, structure, and surface chemistry of these filler systems impact the insulative and conductive behaviors of the EPDM compounds.
RDAbbott Canada, Ltd., will showcase materials and technologies for the mining industry at the CIM Convention & Expo in Montreal, Canada, in Booth #2028 this spring. The Convention runs from April 30 to May 3 and includes short courses and presentations. The Expo runs from April 30 to May 2.
Starting February 23, RDAbbott will launch its 2023 webinar series that will feature technical insights, material updates, and processing recommendations from our supplier partners throughout the year.
Thanks to a monetary contribution by Cancarb Limited, 16 trees were added to Lions Park in Redcliff, Alberta, Canada. Cancarb also volunteered its employees to assist with planting the trees alongside fellow townsmen.
RDAbbott recently hosted a webinar titled “Benefits of Thermax® N990 to Rubber Compounding.” This 53-minute presentation about Cancarb Thermax® N990 thermal carbon black was livestreamed on April 28, 2022. It is part of RDAbbott’s 2022 Webinar Series, which provided technical insights and processing recommendations from its supplier partners.
RDAbbott Canada, Ltd. will showcase materials and technologies for the mining industry at this year’s CIM Convention & EXPO in booth #1705. CIM, the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum, is returning to in-person events and hosting CIM EXPO, Canada’s premier mining trade show, at the Vancouver Convention Centre (West Building) in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, from May 1 to 3, 2022.
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.

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.
Cancarb has launched Thermax® N990CG, a low PAH grade of thermal carbon black that gives customers the ability to minimize the amount of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in their products without sacrificing quality and performance.
