MODENS BR

Introduction

MODENS BR is a sterically hindered polar modifier used during the production of
s-SBR (solution Styrene Butadiene Rubber) to control and obtain a narrow molecular
weight distribution. MODENS BR is usually used at a temperature above 80°C with
alkyl lithium initiator in a hydrocarbon solvent such as hexane.
s-SBR applies to meet or exceed the tire labeling requirements about fuel
efficiency, safety and noise for cars and lightweight vehicles thanks to its low
rolling resistance, high traction duringbraking and low abrasion.
