Aflux 42 is a rubber processing promoter supplied by Rhein Chemie (Lanxess) and is designed for use in compounds based on a wide range of synthetic rubbers. It is primarily used to support efficient processing during mixing, extrusion, and calendering operations. The product is a water-free blend of fatty alcohols and fatty acid esters, supplied in pellet form, and is suitable for incorporation in both internal mixers and on open mills.
Aflux 42 functions as a dispersing aid for fillers and rubber chemicals, contributing to improved plasticity of uncured compounds and enhanced flow behavior during processing. It is commonly applied in formulations containing NR, SBR, NBR, CR, EPDM, and other elastomers. The material is added together with fillers during the mixing stage to ensure uniform distribution.
Aflux 42 supports smooth surface finish in extruded and calendered products without significantly influencing vulcanized rubber properties. It is used across multiple rubber processing techniques, including continuous vulcanization and injection molding, where stable and consistent processing behavior is required.
