STABILITY AND RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF THERMALLY TREATED CARBON-BLACK FEEDSTOCKS
An experimental investigation on the behaviour of thermally treated carbon black feedstocks is reported. The various changes in Physico-Chemical and Rheological properties of these feedstocks are compared and a relationship between treatment temperature and system colloidal stability is defined. The binary mixtures of different proportion of thermally treated feedstocks are subjected to rheological investigation to study their compatibility behaviour. A correlation between viscous flow activation energy and stability factor of the system is established.
