Thermax® N990CG from Cancarb Limited meets U.S. and European Union (EU) regulations for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), chemicals that have been classified as carcinogenic to humans. Thermax® N990CG meets EU 1272/2013 and EU 10/2011 standards and has a Food Contact Notification (FCN) from the FDA.

Due to its large particle size and low structure, Cancarb’s Thermax® N990 is an ideal choice for applications that require strong dynamic properties, such as bushings, engine mounts, bump stops, and other NVH components. Check out this webinar recording to discover how Thermax® N990 medium thermal carbon black stacks up against other types of carbon black.

Join us on Thursday, October 3, 2024, from 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM (ET) for a free webinar about the dynamic property advantages of Cancarb Thermax® N990 in rubber compounding. Due to its large particle size and low structure, compared to other types of carbon black, Thermax® N990 is an ideal choice for applications that require strong dynamic properties, such as bushings, engine mounts, bump stops, and other NVH components.

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. This 47-minute presentation highlights 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.
