Cancarb Limited has published a Technical Bulletin about the benefits of using Thermax® N990CG in milking liners made of nitrile butadiene rubber. Thermax® N990CG is an FDA-approved thermal carbon black that’s designed to improve the properties and performance of rubber that’s used repeatedly with food items.
Cancarb Limited has published a Technical Bulletin about the benefits of using Thermax® N990CG in milking liners made of silicone. Thermax® N990CG is an FDA-approved thermal carbon black that’s designed to improve the properties and performance of rubber that’s used repeatedly with food items.
Cancarb Limited has completed and commissioned a new solar power facility in Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada. The project underscores Cancarb’s long-standing commitment to environmental sustainability and will provide a substantial portion of the electricity required for its thermal carbon black manufacturing operations.
On Thursday, September 24, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM (ET) we invite you to learn how Thermax® N990CG, a low PAH thermal carbon black, can serve as a drop-in replacement for standard Thermax N990 in rubber formulations, while ensuring compliance with stringent regulatory requirements for food contact and potable water applications. Cancarb’s Ed Norton, Technical Service Manager, and Chris Sawicki, Americas Marketing Representative, are the presenters.
Join us April 28 – 29, 2026, in Barberton, Ohio, for Organic Elastomers 360°, a multifaceted training event where you’ll learn how to examine the performance of organic elastomers from every angle. This hands-on event is hosted by RDAbbott in collaboration with Akron Rubber Development Laboratory (ARDL) and features expert contributions from companies across the rubber industry.
Starting January 29, RDAbbott launched its 2026 webinar series that will feature technical insights, material updates, and processing recommendations from our supplier partners throughout the year.
Thermax® N990CG medium thermal carbon black meets the requirements for carbon black specified in EU 10/2011, enabling its use in water gaskets. It also carries an effective Food Contact Notification (FCN No. 2420), allowing it to be used in applications covered under CFR 177.2600 rubber articles intended for repeated use. By watching this webinar recording, you’ll learn how Thermax® N990CG can serve as a drop-in replacement for standard N990 in rubber formulations, while ensuring compliance with stringent regulatory requirements for food contact and consumer goods.

Cancarb Limited has published a Technical Bulletin that describes the advantages of incorporating Thermax® Thermal Carbon Black in various formulations of polystyrene (PS) foam. The study documents the dispersion and processing benefits of Thermax® and uses similar expansion, density, open-cell content, and compression properties as the control. Adding 4 wt.% thermal black resulted in a ~ 3% reduction in thermal conductivity and a ~ 14% reduction in thermal effusivity.
