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.

THESE SPECIAL FEATURES MAKE RHENOFIT® BDMA/S SO SUCCESSFUL

• Higher crosslink density – more efficient than increasing peroxide levels
• Enhanced mechanical properties – hardness, modulus, resilience, and abrasion resistance
• Broad compatibility – suitable for saturated and unsaturated elastomers
• Clean processing – low dusting grade for safe handling and uniform dispersion
• Color stability of finished products
• Optimized for high-performance applications – from automotive to cable technology

THE MOST COMMON AREAS OF APPLICATION

• Seals, bushings, and hoses for automotive and industrial use
• Extruded profiles requiring high mechanical strength
• Cable insulation and jacketing
• Molded parts exposed to heat and mechanical stress
• Technical rubber goods based on EPDM, EPM, NBR, HNBR, NR, SBR, CR, CM, CSM, FKM, FEPM, and VMQ
