Abstract: A method for manufacturing micronized rubber powders including grinding of a rubber granulated feedstock, size classification and storage of the micronized rubber powders thus obtained. A rubber formulation including at least one natural or synthetic rubber, a micronized rubber composition and optionally one or more of processing aids, antidegradants, fillers, accelerators and curatives. A method for manufacturing a rubber product, as well as to a solid rubber product.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for treatment of a hot gas generated by a pyrolysis or a gasification process, wherein the hot gas is passed to a first unit for particle removal and cooling, whereby subsequently, a gaseous stream is removed from a first condensed stream thus obtained and passed to a second unit for particle removal and cooling, wherein a second condensed stream is obtained, said first condensed stream and second condensed stream being recycled to said first unit and said second unit, respectively.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for recycling scrap rubber comprising the steps of pyrolyzing scrap rubber to obtain a char material and milling the thus obtained char material. The present invention also relates to carbon black powders and carbon black pellets obtained by the method according to the invention. Moreover, the present invention relates to the use of said carbon black powder and to compositions comprising said carbon black powders.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a rotary kiln made of a metal alloy. The alloy is preferably chosen from the group of Alloy 321, Alloy 321H, Alloy 347, Alloy 347H, Alloy 348 and Alloy 348H. An object of the present invention is to provide a rotary kiln that can be operated under the reducing gas conditions to be experienced by the kiln in a pyrolysis process of scrap rubber. The present invention furthermore relates to the use of such a rotary kiln in a process for the pyrolysis of tyres.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composite comprising a thermosetting resin with a hardness of at least 55 Shore D, wherein the resin essentially consists of an ethylene ?-olefin copolymer with a density of less than 880 kg/m3, which resin is crosslinked to a degree such that the volume swelling measured in decaline after 64 hours at 23° C. is less than 50% by volume on the composite and the composite contains at least 40% by volume of a reinforcing filler, wherein the vol % of the filler is related to the volume of the resin. The composite according to the invention is an excellent isolator when at least 100 phr cork are present in the composite. A composite according to the invention can be made by crosslinking of the copolymer in the presence of a high amount of peroxide in the presence of at least 40% by volume on the resin of a filler.

Abstract: The invention relates to a thermal insulation material, and in particular an insulating material for a sub marine pipe, consisting of a composite comprising a thermoset elastomer and a filler or fillers comprising one or more hollow spaces such that the total volume of the hollow spaces occupies more than 10 vol. % of the volume of the composite, wherein the elastomer is cured in the presence of a peroxide and a co-agent.
