We provide a range of black masterbatches in different grades suitable for meeting your needs.
Carbon black is an intense black amorphous form of carbon with an insanely high surface area, which is produced by incomplete combustion and pyrolysis of hydrocarbons. Its unique properties like high surface area, high melting and boiling point, abrasion resistance, UV stability, high tensile strength, electrical conductivity, etc. make it a highly versatile material to be used across various industries. Carbon black is commonly used in inks, coatings, and batteries, as a filler for rubber products, and as a UV-stabilizing pigment in plastics.
These unique properties of carbon black are attributed by its particle size which is usually in the range of 8 to 500 nanometres. This small size provides a larger surface area, higher viscosity, better reinforcement, increased tensile strength and abrasion resistance. Carbon Black tends to form agglomerates. Under an electron microscope, carbon black is seen to exist as grape-like aggregates, which function as the main structure, rather than individual particles/structures. Due to the van der Waals forces of attraction, the primary particle aggregates are attracted to each other, and hence form agglomerates. Increasing the structure of carbon black enhances its dispersibility, modulus, hardness, and electrical conductivity, but it also increases compound viscosity.
A trusted manufacturer and supplier of carbon black, like A1 Impex, guarantees the manufacturing and shipping of the finest quality of this material to satisfy a variety of industrial demands.
Our commitment to quality does not just end here, it goes beyond the ordinary. Some of the unique features our product offers are:
While choosing Carbon Black for your project, it is important to consider the type, grade, and carrier resin you're using. Tailored to specific applications, there are several types and grades of carbon black, which differ in structure, surface area, and particle size.
N series Carbon Black - Carbon black with light colour and a small surface area. It can be used in inks, coatings, and plastics since it has good fluidity and dispersion properties.
S series Carbon Black - Carbon black with a larger surface area and darker colour as compared to the N series. It is commonly used in tyres, rubbers and industrial equipment due to its amazing chemical, UV and wear resistance.
P series Carbon Black - Carbon black with good colour-enhancing properties, and a large surface area. It is used in cosmetics, inks and coatings for improved texture due to its fluidity, and good suspension properties.
F series Carbon Black - This type of Carbon black is oxidized with high surface carboxyl content. This leads to its enhanced compatibility and affinity with polymers and resins. It is used in coatings, inks, and adhesives.
HAF (Hard Abrasion Furnace) Carbon Black - IT is commonly used in high-quality tyres, industrial equipment, and conductive rubber/polymer products, due to its toughness, high wear resistance, and conductivity.
Carrier resins are base polymers which enable the addition of pigments to impart specific colour and properties to the product. For rubber, it is advised to use a resin that sticks well, so the Carbon Black stays in place and makes your product tough, meanwhile for plastics, a resin that helps keep the colour looking sharp is suggested so that it doesn't degrade under the sun.
To ensure you get the right quality for your application, it's essential to understand the specific requirements and performance criteria. For example, in rubber manufacturing, the focus should be on achieving excellent reinforcement and abrasion resistance, while in plastics, factors like colour stability and UV resistance are more important.
Working closely with a trusted supplier and manufacturer like A1 Impex, ensures that your Carbon Black Masterbatch meets the highest quality standards. We provide guidance and expertise to tailor the product to your application needs, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
As a trusted supplier, we at A1 Impex provide a COA (Certificate Of Analysis), which tells you about the pointers mentioned above and serves as a guarantee for the quality and assurance of your chosen grade of carbon black. We believe that keeping transparency and accountability in the supply chain network would help build confidence and trust in our product’s reliability and quality.
