In the vast starry sky of material science, magnesium oxide is like a bright star, with its unique physicochemical properties, playing an irreplaceable role in many fields. Jiangsu Zehui magnesium base, as a leader in the field of magnesium oxide research and development, has always been committed to explore the infinite potential of this star, especially in the field of anti-aging rubber products, we are at the forefront of the industry. Rubber products, as an indispensable part of modern industry, its durability and anti-aging performance are directly related to the service life and safety performance of the products. However, with the passage of time and the erosion of the environment, rubber products often gradually lose their original elasticity and strength, cracking, hardening and even fracture and other phenomena. This phenomenon is the visual manifestation of rubber aging.
So what key role will magnesium oxide play in anti-aging in rubber products:
Antioxidant mechanism
Free radical scavenging: The magnesium ions provided by magnesium oxide can react with the free radicals in rubber to form a stable structure, effectively cutting off the free radical chain reaction. This antioxidant mechanism significantly slows down the aging process of rubber, thus extending the service life of rubber products.
Stabilized structure: The addition of magnesium oxide makes the cross-links between the rubber molecular chains closer, forming a more stable chemical structure and resisting the erosion of rubber by external factors (such as oxygen, ultraviolet rays, etc.
Improved heat resistance
High temperature stability: magnesium oxide itself has high thermal stability, and can keep its physical and chemical properties unchanged under high temperature environment. In rubber products, magnesium oxide can enhance the heat resistance of rubber, so that rubber can still maintain good performance under high temperature conditions. Delay thermal decomposition: magnesium oxide slows down the thermal decomposition of rubber at high temperature through its antioxidant mechanism, preventing the aging phenomenon of rubber due to thermal decomposition.
Synergy with other additives
Vulcanization activation: In the process of rubber vulcanization, magnesium oxide, as a vulcanization activator, can accelerate the vulcanization reaction, so that more cross-linking points are formed between the rubber molecular chains. This not only improves the physical and mechanical properties of rubber, but also enhances the anti-aging ability of rubber.
Antioxidant synergy: Magnesium oxide can work synergistically with other antioxidants (e.g., antioxidants, ultraviolet absorbers, etc.) in rubber to jointly resist the aging of rubber. This synergy allows rubber products to maintain a long service life under a variety of environmental factors.
Improve the comprehensive performance of rubber products
Physical properties enhancement: the addition of magnesium oxide can also enhance the hardness, abrasion resistance, tensile strength and other physical properties of the rubber products, so that the rubber products in the long-term use of the process can still maintain good performance.
Processing performance optimization: In rubber processing, magnesium oxide can improve the fluidity and processability of the rubber material, making the production process smoother, and at the same time improving the yield of rubber products.
Whether it is in automotive tires, industrial seals or rubber parts in daily consumer products, Zefai Magnesium Oxide is able to provide tailor-made anti-aging solutions for different types of rubber products and different usage environments.
