RHENOFIT® BDMA/S

Product Description
Rhenofit® BDMA/S is based on 1,4-butanediol dimethacrylate (BDMA) and acts as a highly efficient co-agent for peroxide vulcanization. Its difunctional methacrylate structure significantly increases crosslink density, resulting in improved hardness, elasticity, abrasion resistance, and heat-aging performance.
Compared to simply increasing peroxide dosage, Rhenofit® BDMA/S enables more efficient crosslinking without compromising processing safety. The low dusting, silica-bound powder ensures clean handling and uniform dispersion during mixing.
Compatible with a wide range of elastomers, including EPDM, EPM, NBR, HNBR, NR, SBR, CR, CM, CSM, FKM, FEPM, and VMQ, Rhenofit® BDMA/S is the ideal choice for demanding technical applications.
