Kettlitz Chemie TAC/GR 50

TAC/GR 50 is a 50 % and TAC/GR 70 a 70 % triallylcyanurate (TAC) in granular form. TAC/GR gran-ules are more stable and better applicable in automatic weighing machines than TAC/GR 70, whereas the latter contains a higher amount of active substance.

Functions: Activator

Compatible Polymers & Resins: Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM), Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA)

Features: Excellent Compatibility, Free Flowing

Features & Benefits

Features

The difference between other coagents and TAC/GR is the higher reaction temperature which particu-larly gives better storage stability and improved scorch behavior (see also table 7) at processing tem-peratures. The compatibility of TAC/GR 50 and TAC/GR 70 with polymers is excellent, especially in EPDM, HNBR, CM and EVA.

Applications & Uses

Uses

The use of TAC/GR improves not only the general physical properties but also the temperature resis-tance of the cured rubber compound after heat aging. There will be no negative influence of the carrier of TAC/GR grades on the electrical properties of insulation compounds.
