Nano-zinc oxide in rubber composite application

As a multi-functional additives and the semiconductor material, zinc oxide has been in the chemical industry, light industry, ceramics, electronics, national defense, medicine and health care and a variety of high-tech products play an important role. For a long time, people have been committed to explore zinc oxide reduce the size and improve its response to the activity of a new way. The emergence of nano-materials for the development of additives to provide a new way of thinking, which appeared in ZnO. Compared with other nano-materials, nano-zinc oxide in response to performance more prominent. Rubber industry in general widely used zinc oxide, zinc oxide and ultra-fine zinc oxide activity is the use of zinc oxide and rubber processing aid in some of the components (such as stearic acid) occurred in a chemical reaction that function to generate organic Zinc, TBSI increased activity in response.
In theory, with zinc oxide to reduce the size of its larger surface area, to enhance reactivity In addition, zinc oxide particle size can be reduced correspondingly reduce the amount of zinc oxide to improve uniformity of response. Studied the work of the nano-zinc oxide in rubber compound materials, the study focused on the conventional mechanical properties and wear resistance and so on.
