1. improve dispersion

Wet master rubber: through the wet mixing process, the reinforcing filler (such as carbon black, white carbon black, etc.) is made into a water dispersion and added to the latex, after mechanical stirring, flocculation, dehydration, drying and other steps, so that the dispersion of the reinforcing filler in the rubber matrix is significantly improved. This high dispersion helps to improve the physical and mechanical properties of the compound, such as tensile strength, elasticity, wear resistance, etc.

Dry mixing process: In contrast, the dispersibility of the reinforcing filler in the dry mixing process may be limited, because the filler in the dry powder state may be difficult to achieve the uniform dispersion effect of the wet mixing process.

2. reduce energy consumption and cost

Wet master glue: The wet mixing process realizes the continuous mixing process, simplifies the mixing process, reduces the mixing equipment, energy and labor input, and thus greatly reduces the mixing cost. In addition, wet kneading also contributes to improving production efficiency and further reducing costs.

Dry mixing process: The dry mixing process is relatively high in terms of energy consumption and cost, because more equipment and energy are required to complete the mixing process.

3. environmental significance

Wet master glue: The wet mixing process fundamentally solves the environmental pollution problems caused by certain reinforcing fillers (such as white carbon black). In the wet mixing process, wastewater discharge and production water can be effectively controlled, in line with environmental protection requirements.

Dry mixing process: The dry mixing process may have certain limitations in environmental protection, because the dry powder state of the filler may produce dust pollution and other problems during mixing and processing.

Compared with the dry mixing process, the wet master glue has the advantages of improving dispersion, reducing energy consumption and cost, significant environmental protection and improving product quality. These advantages make the wet master rubber has a wide range of application prospects and development potential in the rubber industry.
