Aflux 12 NS Rubber Processing Promoter | Rhein Chemie Lanxess

Aflux 12 NS rubber processing promoter prill form
Product Overview

Aflux 12 NS is a rubber processing promoter developed by Rhein Chemie (Lanxess) for use in compounds based on natural and synthetic rubbers. It is supplied as an off-white prilled material and is designed to support improved dispersion of ingredients during rubber mixing operations. According to the manufacturer’s technical documentation, Aflux 12 NS assists in reducing mixing time and can contribute to smoother processing in both internal mixers and open mills.

The product is formulated as a blend of fatty acid esters and hydrocarbons bound to inactive fillers. Its use helps minimize sticking of rubber compounds to mixing equipment and facilitates downstream processing steps such as extrusion, calendaring, transfer molding, and injection molding. Aflux 12 NS is commonly applied in heavily filled rubber compounds where improved flow behavior and easier mold filling are required. It is suitable for a wide range of elastomer systems including NR, SBR, BR, NBR, EPDM, and related rubbers, as per official technical sources.
