Peptisers

Peptisers promote the reduction of polymer molecular weight thus increasing the efficiency of rubber mastication. The resulting reduced viscosity and nerve translate to improved processability of the polymer and of the compounds mixed with it. Our dispersed peptisers ensure a much faster incorporation than traditional peptisers, have a far superior distribution, overcome troublesome localised hot spots, and improve batch-to-batch uniformity.
