Elastomers:

Quadra offers a wide range of chemical raw materials to custom rubber mixers and the construction / building products industry. Our supplier partnership with Hydro Technologies allows us to offer a range of zinc oxide grades allowing for greater reactivity and enhanced performance properties at reducing loading levels. We also have available a full line of rubber accelerators and rubber antioxidants for a variety of curing system requirements We also offer a full line of vinyl-acetate-ethylene copolymer (VAE) water re-dispersible powders allowing for the formation of a stable emulsion used to improve adhesion, flexural strength, abrasion resistance, and workability of modified compounds such as:

• tile adhesives
• mortar repair
• self-leveling compounds
• mineral plasters
• gypsum based compounds

Our broad range of precipitated silicas will meet your needs as polymer reinforcement agents providing heat resistance, tear strength and improved processing of molded and extruder products. We also offer synthetic polymers including styrene-isoprene-styrene block co-polymers (SIS), styrene butadiene styrene (SBS) and butandiene rubber (BR) for your polymer requirements. In addition we have a complete line of aromatic (C9), non-hydrogenated aliphatic (C5) and hydrogenated water-white aliphatic (C5) tackifiying resins for a variety of requirements for rubber compounding.
