Silica
Silica
Silica, also known as White Carbon, is a compound made from silicon and oxygen. It appears as a white, odorless, non-toxic powder that does not add color to rubber products. This makes it highly suitable for transparent, white, or color-specific rubber compounds. Silica is widely used as a reinforcing filler in the rubber industry, especially in non-black rubber applications.
Silica enhances the mechanical strength of rubber, improves tear resistance, and increases elasticity. It also aids in better processability and contributes to longer service life of rubber products under real-world conditions.
