Rubber Nano Products

Rubber Nano Products (RNP) holds technology that allows for the creation of chemically specific activators vulcanisation with sulfur. These accelerator classes are based on the chemical species forming the active portion of the accelerator. RNP technology allows for variation of the substrate used and can create activators from almost any material used in rubber. Stearic acid is among the many possibilities. The RNP products allow for the reduction and rationalisation of zinc oxide and zinc content in rubber article manufacture. These are advantages that can also be leveraged as cure press
