Carbon black is used primarily in the reinforcement of rubber, both for tyre as well as automotive and non-automotive rubber components. Besides providing reinforcement, carbon black also offers unique colouring and conductive properties that are used in a range of applications such as inks and coatings, films and general plastics, conductive cables, electrostatic dissipative (ESD) packaging, synthetic fiber and a variety of other performance related applications. Himadri Speciality Chemical Ltd is a leader in carbon black manufacturing producing a wide range of carbon black products that include both ASTM as well as speciality blacks.

ASTM GRADE BLACK

Himadri’s ASTM carbon blacks are produced to the exacting standards to ensure lot-to-lot consistency. Himadri produces both tread (reinforcing) and carcass (semi-reinforcing) carbon blacks primarily used in tyres and mechanical rubber goods (MRG).

KLAREX

‘Clean’ speciality blacks offer low ash and grit levels, which make them easy to disperse and reduce defects, resulting in high processability. KLAREX carbon blacks also enable superior mechanical properties in rubber goods, such as excellent dimensional stability, compression set and smoothness.
