RHENOGRAN® Resorcin-80/SBR
Predispersed resorcinol for rubber–reinforcement bonding—enables strong, reliable adhesion to textiles and steelcord.
Product Description
Rhenogran® Resorcin-80/SBR is a masterbatch containing 80% resorcinol in a SBR binder, designed for use in direct bonding systems such as the resorcinol–formaldehyde–silica (RFS) system. In combination with a formaldehyde donor (e.g., Rhenogran® HEXA-80 or Cohedur® A250), it forms a resorcinol–formaldehyde resin during vulcanization, which is essential for robust bonding between rubber and reinforcing materials like textiles, glass fibers, and steelcords.
The low-dust, polymer-bound form ensures safe handling, clean processing, and fast, even dispersion. This system is widely used in tires, conveyor belts, V-belts, hoses, and other reinforced rubber goods. The pre-dispersed form ensures rapid incorporation and excellent dispersion, maximizing the bonding performance of resorcinol in industrial practice.
THESE SPECIAL FEATURES MAKE THIS PRODUCT SO SUCCESSFUL
- Enables strong, durable bonding of rubber to textiles, glass fibers, and steelcords
- Pre-dispersed in SBR for low-dust, easy handling and uniform distribution
- Forms in-situ resorcinol–formaldehyde resin for high adhesion during vulcanization
- Compatible with all common rubber types and reinforcement materials
- Proven performance in demanding dynamic and static applications
THE MOST COMMON AREAS OF APPLICATION
- Tires (carcass, belt, bead, and sidewall reinforcement)
- Conveyor belts, V-belts, round belts
- Fire hoses and other reinforced hoses
- Flexible containers and fabric-reinforced rubber goods
- Technical rubber articles requiring textile or metal reinforcement
