As we all know, conventional conductive carbon black needs to be added in a larger amount to conduct electricity. Adding too much carbon black may have unnecessary negative effects on other physical and chemical properties of the product. For this reason, Cabot has specially developed superconducting carbon black BLACK PEARLS 2000 that can be added in small amounts.
BLACK PEARLS 2000 superconducting carbon black is a superconducting grade carbon material with a very fine particle size, a very large specific surface area, and a very high structure. It is a carbon black produced using a furnace process specifically designed for conductive applications and used in critical applications requiring good conductivity, good physical properties and processability. BLACK PEARLS 2000 superconducting carbon black provides excellent conductivity and anti-static discharge properties at low addition levels in rubber and plastic compounds.
Cabot BLACK PEARLS 2000 conductive carbon black features:
Cabot BLACK PEARLS® 2000 conductive carbon black has better performance in rubber and plastic compounds than other Cabot conductive carbon blacks such as Vulcan® XC-72, VULCAN®P and Sterling ®C and other model products have good electrical conductivity. BLACK PEARLS®2000 is used in applications where other conductive carbon black products cannot achieve a balance between conductive performance and rubber and plastic performance indicators.
Cabot BLACK PEARLS 2000 Conductive Carbon Black is also recommended for use in blends with other carbon blacks. Adding a small amount of BLACK PEARLS® 2000 carbon black can help achieve the required level of conductivity or antistatic without affecting other rubber and plastic properties, without the need for complex compounding. The rubber and plastic reinforcing properties of BLACK PEARLS® 2000 carbon black are very high, higher than those provided by ASTM N100 and N200 model carbon blacks.
Typical applications:
Antistatic and conductive applications
Hospital floors and floors
Conveyor belts and power transmission belts
Mining and petroleum hoses
Cable shielding
