Sustainable Carbonaceous Material (SCM)
for different industries
TIRE INDUSTRY
Continua™ 8000 SCM not only offers our tyre customers a truly circular material at the volume and quality they require, but its unique characteristics offer additional benefits beyond sustainability:
- Reduced hysteresis to help reduce vehicle energy consumption and lower CO2 emissions
- Equivalent performance* to minimize approval times and requirement to reformulate
- Potential for blended solutions to negate the requirement for investment in extra silo capacity
- Full life cycle assessment allowing quantifiable CO2 savings to be calculated
* Only for certain blend ratios and formulations.
Continua™ 8000 SCM also benefits from Birla Carbon’s robust supply chains and experience in packing in multiple pack types, including bulk. The level of technical support expected by our customers also applies to this new product range. By sharing our strengths, we can work together to ensure your business extracts the maximum value of Continua™ SCM in your formulations.
MRG INDUSTRY
In addition to its quantified sustainability attributes, the unique properties of Continua™ 8000 offer our customers additional benefits beyond sustainability:
- Consistent quality at the volumes required
- Certified low PAH content, allowing use in skin contact applications
- Low electrical conductivity allowing replacement of white fillers to lower component weight
- ECD resistance for automotive coolant hose applications
- Good processability and low residue to easy processing and long screen life
Continua™ 8000 SCM also benefits from Birla Carbon’s robust supply chain and experience with various packaging, including bulk. The level of technical support our customer expect from Birla Carbon will help ensure your business extracts the maximum value of Continua™ SCM in your formulations.
PLASTICS INDUSTRY
Continua™ SCM allows plastic customers to create fully sustainable, low PAH, compounds* while maintaining the processability and performance of traditional masterbatch.
- Low residue for good screenlife and improved productivity
- Lower meltflow allowing faster processing or higher concentration masterbatches
- Pelletised for easy storage and conveying
- Fully GADSL compliant allowing use in automotive applications
* when used in conjunction with recycled or sustainable polymers
COATINGS INDUSTRY
Continua™ SCM powder offers customers developing sustainable coatings a carbon negative black pigment to help meet the value chains sustainability targets.
- Powder version available allowing easy dispersion in difficult vehicles
- Full life cycle assessment allowing quantifiable CO2 savings to be calculated
- Allows the creation of fully sustainable coating solutions*
* when used in conjunction with recycled or sustainable vehicles
The genesis of our Continua™ SCM product range, Continua™ 8000 SCM offers our customers a beaded sustainable alternative to carbon black at the large volumes and consistent quality required. Developed to offer an optimum balance of cost and performance, Continua™ 8000 SCM is fully GADSL and REACH compliant.
A genesis of a range of Sustainable Carbonaceous Materials (SCM), that offer our consumers a sustainable alternative to traditional furnace carbon black. Life Cycle Assessments ISO 14040 and ISO 14044 demonstrate that at full capacity, ContinuaTM 8000 SCM can help eliminate over 220,000 tonnes of carbon emissions every year, when compared to the
