The Longxing plant in China
Longxing Technology Group, a leading Chinese carbon black supplier, has commenced deliveries on an initial order of nearly 10,000 tonnes of its sustainable products to a well-known European tyre producer.
Longxing Tech is also working with other well-known European tyre manufacturers on developing sustainable green carbon black products, promoting relevant sample delivery and certification work.
Carbon black serves as a core reinforcing filler in tyres, which can improve various properties, including tear, wear and fatigue resistance, as well as extend tyre service life. Virgin carbon black is formed through synthetic reactions from coal tar and has better performance than recycled carbon black.
The sustainable carbon black for the latest project is synthesised from cracking oil made from waste tyres through cracking reactions, with its performance comparable to that of virgin carbon black, Longxing Tech said, noting that recycled carbon black is extracted from waste tyres and has generally low product purity and reinforcement performance.
Sustainable carbon black is viewed by the industry as the most promising and certain direction for the development of green carbon black, with its economic benefits superior to traditional carbon black production.
Longxing Tech ranks among the top three carbon black producers in China and in the top 10 worldwide. Its output reached 668,700 tonnes last year, while sales topped 652,800 tonnes, according to its annual financial report.
