What is Rubber Curing?

Curing is widely known as vulcanization. Curing treatment of rubber is the process of giving it certain qualities like strength, elasticity. In other terms, it involves the formation of cross-linking between polymer chains of the rubber molecules. Cross-linking prevents the chain from moving independently, letting the material stretch under stress and then return to its original shape when stress is released.

How to ensure uniform rubber curing

When curing rubber with sulfur, there is a chance of some uncured and over cured zones. To prevent this, We can use a Masterbatch of sulfur, which is also known as Pre dispersed sulfur. Pre-dispersed sulfur, as the name suggests, it is a Mixture of Rubber and Sulfur in the form of pallets. Pre dispersed sulfur ensures uniform curing of the compound.

Further, there are several benefits of using Pre dispersed sulfur-like

• Dust Free & Eco-Friendly

• No-fly loss, no loss due to spillages

• Easy handling & housekeeping

• No health hazards

• Excellent dispersion in Rubber Matrices

• Low scrap rate

• No Static charge generation

• Reduced mixing cycle time

• Less power consumption

• Increase in productivity

• Automated feeding is highly effective

• Single-stage mixing is possible

We all know manufacturing Pre dispersed sulfur is not possible, As per the leader in the market a lot of them recommend OCCL, they manufacture Pre dispersed sulfur under the brand name of DIAMIX, which can easily achieve these goals.
