A very conductive furnace process carbon black used in applications where other conductive grades cannot meet very high conductivity specifications. BLACK PEARLS 2000 also offers anti-static discharge properties for rubber compounds at very low loading.

This carbon black is a pelleted furnace black and is used in tire applications including carcass, tube and inner-liner compounds. The product is ideal in tire compounding in areas where good dynamic performance is needed, with minimal heat generation in flexing, and areas where high black loadings are desirable.

A cost-effective carbon black that provides improved flowability in rubber compounds for high-temperature injection-molded applications and high hardness extrusion profiles. SPHERON 4000's unique morphology significantly reduces the potential for mold fouling. This can improve productivity and lower cost by reducing the need for mold cleaning in NBR.

SPHERON 5000A is one of the carbon blacks from CABOT’s "A" grade family. The surface aspect of extruded automotive profile and window channels is very important today. Class "A" automotive surface applications demand a very low level of particles that could cause visible surface imperfections leading to rejects or ‘scrap’. In response to that market requirement, a family of carbon blacks appropriately identified by the suffix "A", was developed by Cabot to address carbon black related extruded surface imperfections.

One of Cabot's "A" grade carbon blacks, SPHERON 6000A is suited for the production of low viscosity compounds and low hardness articles since it disperses faster and easier than higher surface area semi-reinforcing grades. It significantly improves the compound resistance to electrochemcial degradation in radiator hose compounds without compromising on other physical or processing parameters.
