BBC grades relative to competing ASTM rubber grades
Very low tan delta and Payne effect values combined with high mechanical reinforcement make the Black Bear grades extremely valuable in tires, and other demanding, dynamic applications where low hysteresis and low rolling resistance are key requirements.
The high surface area of the Black Bear grades combined with their relatively low structure provide high tensile strength, very high elongation, with relatively low modulus.
