Neodymium Finished Catalysts

A UNIQUE RARE EARTH FINISHED CATALYST TO PRODUCE SYNTHETIC POLYBUTADIENE WITH SUPERIOR PROPERTIES

The Product: COMCAT Nd-FC

Unlike current catalyst technologies, Comar can offer a range of Pre-formed Neodymium based liquid catalyst, that are a stable, finished catalysts, that are immediately highly active on their own, without requiring any further co-catalysts, in reacting butadiene monomers, to produce a high CIS, linear polymer, with narrow polydispersity.

 

The Advantages

• COMCAT Nd-FC are highly active catalyst systems, leading to a reduction in catalyst system cost, compared to conventional In-situ and Pre-form Nd catalyst systems.
• A polymer is produced with a very narrow molecular weight distribution.
• This polymer has better physical strength properties, such as higher Rebound.
• Lower solution viscosity is obtained, compared with conventional Nd-BR.
• The catalysts are stable in refrigerated storage for 12 months or more, yielding exactly the same catalytic performance and the same polymer product.

 

 Application

COMCAT Nd-FC produces synthetic polybutadiene with improved physical properties. This makes this catalyst ideal in manufacturing synthetic rubber for radial car tires.

 

Packaging

• The products are supplied by seafreight by specialised T-14 or T-22 refrigerated Isotanks, that carry 16 mt at a time
• Lower quantities are available on special request

Technical Support

Comar’s specialized technicians are able to assist synthetic rubber producers who wish to convert from outdated Ni- or Co- Ziegler Natta technology, to the advanced COMCAT Nd-FC system.

This can include:

1. Detailed recommendations and procedures for laboratory evaluations.
2. On-site assistance in plant trials.
3. Analytical backup to verify polymer properties.
4. Assistance to modify your existing Polymerisation plant for the new Nd-FC catalyst technology.
