Cancarb Limited has earned its third Platinum Sustainability Rating from EcoVadis, a global provider of corporate and environmental scorecards. The maker of Thermax® medium thermal carbon black also received EcoVadis’ highest rating in 2021 and 2023. Cancarb uses waste heat from its energy-efficient operations to help power its community and has developed a low-PAH product to address environmental health and safety concerns.

RDC S.r.l., a global supplier of pre-dispersed chemicals and additives, has revised its product brochure for the rubber and thermoplastic industries. The highlights include a new section about the company’s Premix® Specialties and new pages about its Veaflame flame suppressors and Films and Bags for Chemical Pre-Dosing. There are several other changes as well.

Dow has published a technical article in the June 2024 edition of Rubber World magazine about a novel liquid silicone rubber (LSR) that is compatible with the fire-rated (FR) plastics used in automotive electrical connector housings. Unlike conventional LSRs, Dow SILASTIC™ 9212-50 won’t degrade prematurely from direct contact with FR plastics. This LSR formulation also retains its mechanical properties, flexibility, and dimensions in connector seals.
