- Mistron® Vapor RE is off-white, high purity, platy, very fine talc, which provides optimum balance of reinforcement and processability in rubber applications due to its unique microcrystalline structure and engineered particle size distribution. It is the optimum talc product for black rubber compounds, and for partial replacement of carbon black.
- Mistron® Vapor RE improves processability, mechanical properties, and permeability resistance of rubber compounds. It is used to reduce viscosity, reduce nerve, increase extrusion rate and quality plus improve dispersion of carbon black and precipitated silica. Mistron® Vapor RE reinforces rubber compounds and improves tensile properties, fatigue, toughness, and durability. The platy structure of Mistron® Vapor RE significantly enhances barrier properties.
- Mistron® Vapor RE balances reinforcement with processability, providing lower compound viscosity, improved extrusion quality and rate, and reduced die swell and nerve. Mistron® Vapor RE improves impermeability and swell resistance and the aging properties of thermoset rubber compounds.
