US-based speciality chemicals firm Orion S.A. has launched Printex chroma 500 Beads, a high-jetness (a complex function of surface area, primary particle size, and degree of dispersion) carbon black designed for the engineered plastics market that demands high aesthetic quality.
The new product is part of Orion’s continued investment in developing higher-value grades of carbon black. The beaded furnace black is also the start of a series of new specialty grades for the polymers market.
The product is said to be a “big breakthrough” for Orion, offering a balance between high jetness and dispersibility, said Tilo Lindner, vice president of Global Marketing for Specialty at Orion.
He added, “This is a product our customers have been demanding for a long time. It’s ideal for injection-moulded automotive parts, household appliances, electronics and other applications with a shiny, glossy finish.”
It also comes with International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC PLUS), highlighting the company’s commitment toward a circular economy.
