STRUKTOL HT 276 was developed specifically for use in compounds containing high loadings of fillers, especially where more reinforcing carbon black grades or high surface area silicas are involved.
STRUKTOL HT 276 reduces compound viscosity and enhances flow property, leading to improved processability, for example during extrusion. In silica compounds STRUKTOL HT 276 reduces the degree of filler-to-filler reagglomeration, known as storage hardening, thereby stabilizing the level of viscosity.
STRUKTOL HT 276 enhances scorch safety of both silica and carbon black compounds and is effective for use both in natural rubber and in synthetic rubber, for example SBR, SSBR and BR blends as are frequently used in tread compounds.
The use of STRUKTOL HT 276 leads to improved physical properties, in contrast to many lubricants which may cause a softening effect, STRUKTOL HT 276 results in an increased state of cure.
Reversion resistance can be improved by use of STRUKTOL HT 276 and dynamic properties such as heat build up on flexing are lowered by the use of this product.
