Use of carbon black from tyre pyrolysis plant

Tyre pyrolysis plant can convert waste tyre to tire oil, carbon black and steel wire. Tire oil can be used as industry fuel or produce diesel after further distillation, while the steel wire can be sold to the market directly or sent to the steel refinery. But few people know what the carbon black can be used for. In general, the carbon black is 30%~35%, the second main product from tyre pyrolysis plant. So it is very important to know the use of carbon black.

The common uses of the carbon black from waste tyre pyrolysis plant are as follows:

1. Directly sell

You can sell the carbon black directly to cement factory, brick factory, carbon pellets producer or carbon black mill. Because carbon black contains coal and ash, so it can be used to make cement and brick. Carbon pellets can be used for industrial heating. After grinding, carbon black power can be obtained which is a good mateiral for remaking tyre and shole sole.

2. As an important reinforcing agent and filler for rubber products

The biggest highlight of this reinforcing filler is that it has the effect of improving the mechanical properties of rubber. For various types of tyres, it is used in the innerliners, carcasses, sidewalls and treads. Carbon black is also used in many molded and extruded industrial rubber products, such as belts, hoses, gaskets, diaphragms, vibration isolation devices, bushings, air springs, chassis bumpers, multiple types of pads, boots, wiper blades, fascia, conveyor wheels, and grommets.

3. Shields from UV rays and prevents plastic aging

Because carbon black has high light absorption, it can effectively prevent photooxidative degradation of plastics when exposed to sunlight. The test proves that when the concentration of carbon black with a certain fineness is 2%, a perfect ultraviolet shielding effect can be achieved. Due to this protective feature it is widely used for conductive packaging, films, fibers, moldings, pipes and semi-conductive cable compounds in products such as refuse sacks, industrial bags, photographic containers, agriculture mulch film, stretch wrap, and thermoplastic molding applications for automotive, electrical / electronics, household appliances and blow-molded containers.

4. An important pigment for printing inks and paints

It is also often used for color matching of plastic products. Carbon blacks, as high performance coatings provide pigmentation for a number of coating applications including automotive (primer basecoats and clearcoats), marine, aerospace, decorative, wood, and industrial coatings.
