Protecting Tires from Ozone: The Role of Anti-Ozone Wax
In the demanding world of automotive manufacturing, tire longevity and performance are paramount. One of the significant environmental challenges tires face is ozone degradation, which can lead to cracking and premature failure. To combat this, tire manufacturers rely on specialized additives like anti-ozone wax. As a leading manufacturer and supplier of high-quality rubber additives, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides advanced solutions to enhance tire durability.
Ozone, a highly reactive gas present in the atmosphere, attacks the carbon-carbon double bonds in unsaturated polymers that form the backbone of rubber. This attack leads to chain scission and the characteristic cracking pattern observed on ozone-damaged rubber products, particularly noticeable on tire sidewalls. The effectiveness of an anti-ozone wax lies in its ability to migrate to the surface of the rubber after vulcanization, forming a physical barrier. This barrier continuously replenishes itself as the rubber flexes, providing enduring protection.
Our anti-ozone wax, formulated as a mixture of paraffin wax and microcrystalline wax, exhibits specific properties crucial for this protective function. Its appearance as white to faint yellow granules, coupled with a congealing point between 63-69ºC, makes it easy to handle and incorporate into rubber formulations. The wax's migration rate is optimized to offer long-term protection without compromising other desirable rubber properties. For manufacturers looking to buy these essential components, understanding their application is key.
The recommended dosage for our anti-ozone wax typically ranges from 1 to 5 parts per hundred rubber (phr), depending on the specific formulation and desired level of protection. This wax is suitable for a wide array of rubber products, including passenger car tires, moto tires, truck tires, agricultural and forestry tires, and construction tires. It's also beneficial for rubber tubes, cables, soles, and tapes, where resistance to environmental aging is critical.
