Sartomer improves retarding power of cross-linking agents

ERJ staff report (DS)

Exton, Pennsylvania -- Sartomer Company

has introduced new retarder technology for the company's crosslinking

coagents. Ideal for rubber applications, the new technology applies to

a variety of current products in Sartomer's multifunctional monomers

portfolio.

Sartomer said, "Products incorporating the new

technology maintain the same scorch safety as with previous Sartomer

offerings, while eliminating odour and reducing colour. The new

retarder systems are less volatile, and persist in the compound even at

high processing temperatures, making them ideal for specialty

elastomers and some thermoplastic applications."

Sartomer

products using the proprietary retarder packages will be designated

with an “R” suffix in the product code, such as the currently available

Saret® SR533R. Additional coagents will be introduced with this new

technology, including both liquid and metallic monomers products.
