Kisuma Enables Rubber Manufacturers to Enhance Durability and Sustainability with DHT™-4 Additives
Kisuma Chemicals, a global leader in magnesium-based additives, has presented new test data showing that its hydrotalcite-like DHT™-4 additive can significantly enhance the heat, fluid and ageing resistance of chloroprene (CR) and epichlorohydrin (ECO) rubbers. In addition to acting as an efficient acid scavenger and improving both the mechanical and the chemical resistance of rubber compounds, this offers manufacturers a compelling alternative to partially replace fluorine rubbers (FKM) in light of upcoming regulations expected to ban the use of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
