Nucap® 100G by KaMin is a water-washed kaolin clays surface-modified with a coupling agent. Used as low cost non-black reinforcing, stiffening or extending fillers in natural and synthetic rubbers. Enhances many physical and processing properties. Provides more consistency and allows for smoother extrudates, less sticking to hot metal surfaces. Exhibits higher tensile and tear resistance. Nucap® 100G can also be useful in high voltage electrical applications for wire and cable, rubber articles, tires, specialty polymer systems and thermoplastic applications.
Polyfil® 80 by KaMin is an anhydrous aluminum silicate. It is a calcined clay, offering excellent processing and limited reinforcement. It imparts outstanding wet/dry electrical properties due to the elimination of bound water during the calcined process. Compounds with calcined clays extrude smoothly and reduce stickiness in processing. Polyfil® 80 is available in milled fine white powder having moderate particle size and is used to extend elastomeric as well as thermoplastics products, including wire and cable applications.
Treated, anhydrous aluminum silicate. Treated kaolin clay is an organo-functional pigment designed to maximize compatibility with surrounding polymers and to minimize absorption of interfacial moisture. It imparts low conductivity due to the elimination of bound water during the calcined process. Mechanical and electrical properties of polymers such as EPR and cross-linked polyolefins are preserved even after long-term exposure to a high-humidity environment. Compounds with calcined clays extrude smoothly as well as reduce stickiness in processing.
