Tires & elastic parts

Suitable for dynamic and static rubber products, i.e. tires, conveyor belts, profiles, gaskets and others. 

• Provides excellent anti-oxidizing and anti-flex cracking properties.
• Non–staining and non-discolouring.
• Suitable for all types of rubber.

Internal, external lubricants and combinations of both functions. For exact extrusion, prevent extruder pulsation and pressure fluctuations.

Rubber type adapted processing aids for all applications.

Anti-tacks for Compounds Barbe’s PROMOL® anti-tacks prevent rubber or TPE compounds from sticking during storage, ensuring efficient processing. Products with fillers are delivered in powder and pre-dispersed form for tire and conveyor belt production, while filler-free products come as liquid concentrates for technical rubber articles.

PROMOL® release agents ensure reliable separation of uncured extrudates in polymer processing, preventing undesired adhesion and supporting subsequent vulcanization. They are used for products such as shoe soles, conveyor belts, profile stripes for cold retreading and hoses, with both silicone-free and silicone-containing options available.

PROMOL® mould release agents are crucial for demolding polymer materials, extending mold lifespan by maintaining cleanliness. They are used for the treatment of moulds, preferably by spraying on the hot metal surface. Available in silicone-free and silicone-containing forms, they support various molding processes such as compression and injection molding, and tire production. All products are water- based and free of any hydrocarbons.

Known as Band Ply Lubricants (BPL) or Tire Inside Paints, these agents improve tire quality and performance by enhancing venting, demolding, and surface finish. They are applied using spraying or spin-disk methods and come in silicone containing, low filler/high filler content, and silicon-free variants. All products are water based.

Tire outside release agents, or Tire Outside Paints, provide technical and aesthetic benefits post-vulcanization. Applied to green tire via spraying, they dry quickly and support both diagonal and radial tires. These agents enhance venting, flow within the mold, and surface appearance.

Mounting aids facilitate the installation of rubber parts like profiles, hoses, or seals. Applied before assembly, they create a uniform film that eases the installation process without affecting the physical properties of the coated articles. These aids are essential for automated production in household appliances and can be used immediately after vulcanization to enhance efficiency.

Lubricants for tire uniformity testing machines are used to ensure that tires glide smoothly and evenly over the measuring device during the testing process. This helps to ensure the accuracy of the measurements, as uniform tire gliding ensures that all relevant data is accurately captured. Glide agents can also help reduce friction and wear, thus extending the lifespan of the testing machine. Overall, glide agents contribute to ensuring consistent and reliable performance of the tire uniformity testing machine.
