Mistrobond® For lower permeability, improved modulus and compression set in medical stoppers, O-rings and gaskets
Mistrobond® has been specifically designed to improve the barrier properties of stoppers, gaskets and membrane applications.
Mistrobond® is very fine microlamellar talc which has been surface treated with a proprietary silane coupling agent for use in sulfur and peroxide cured rubber compounds to improve barrier properties, modulus and compression set.
Mistrobond® provides:
- Excellent barrier properties
- Good chemical resistance
- Improved modulus
- Low compression set
- Carbon black replacement
Barrier properties
In tests conducted at our laboratory in France, medical stoppers reinforced with Mistrobond® demonstrated 30% less permeability than stoppers filled with calcined clay, for example. Mistrobond® also improves tear resistance of stoppers limiting fragmentation.
Mistrobond® is available in compacted form for easy handling and high processing throughput.
We offer a full range of bespoke formulation and technical and process support services to help you match the right mineral grade to your application requirement.
