This KnowHow Webinar is designed to provide up-dated knowledge about silica manufacturing and characterization (specific surface area and structure), surface activity (silanol groups) and dispersion in rubber melts. Detailed knowledge will be provided on effects of precipitated silica on flow behavior and vulcanizate properties. The main focus of the webinar is on silica-silane technology and its beneficial effects on compound flow properties and impact of silanes on vulcanization, stress-strain behavior, dynamic properties, tear strength, cut growth resistance, abrasion resistance and wear.
