Akrochem® Zinc Oxide XFT-H

Akrochem® Zinc Oxide XFT-H by Akrochem is fine particle size, zinc oxide serving as a curing agent/activator. It is made from high purity zinc metal and coated with small amount of propionic acid to aid dispersion in rubber. It is used in dynamic applications where internal heat build-up is a problem, as it possesses high heat transferability. It is suitable in white and colored rubber articles, where zinc oxide of good color and chemical purity is desired. Akrochem® Zinc Oxide XFT-H protects non-black articles from UV-weathering. It is more effective than titanium dioxide and good UV protection in non-black compounds uses 10% of ZnO. It increases activation of cure in latex application, due to its fine particle size and high surface area.
