Description

Rubber process oil, both synthetic and natural are commercially used to Produce products from rubber bands to a toy to the giant tires for various vehicles including aircrafts.Rubber Process Oils are used during mixing of rubber compounds. These help in improving the dispersion of fillers and flow characteristics of the compound during further processing.

Types of rubber process oils
Rubber Process Oils are specially developed taking into consideration the type of rubber and the end product Applications. The range of them are broadly divided in following Three categories.
 
Aromatic types

The primary Characteristics of aromatic Hydrocarbons are the presence of the double bonded mix ring carbon structure.

Naphthenic types

Naphthenic are a class of hydrocarbons also referred to as cycloparaffins. Though their structure is similar to the aromatic ring, these are single bonded thus having a stable structure

Paraffinic types

This class of hydrocarbons constitutes branched chain or straight linked hydrocarbon molecules of various viscosities. As the chain length increases, the viscosity increases and the rubber process oil becomes more viscous.

What is rubber processing oil?
An oil composition which has a kinematic viscosity at **0 °C of from *2 to *0 cSt and which contains less than 3%. polynuclear aromatic compounds is employed as a process oil for rubber compounds, especially aromatic rubbers. The process oil is compatible with aromatic rubbers but contains less toxic polynuclear aromatic compounds than conventional aromatic rubber process oil. Rubber products of acceptable quality are produced using the said oil composition.

Rubber Process Oil (RPO) category
Rubbers process oils are commercially used to produce many products from rubber bands to a toy to the giant tires for various vehicles as well. RPO mix to help in improving the dispersion of fillers and flow characteristics of the compound during further processing. There are tree type of rubber process oil and we can supply both grades aromatic and paraffinic RPO
