Translink® 37 kaolin is a fine particle-size grade featuring high brightness. It has been dehydroxylated by controlled heat treatment for the removal of crystalline-bound hydroxyl groups and to improve brightness. This product is highly pulverized for better dispersion, it is surface treated vinyl functional additive and has been processed to remove significantly more residue.

This product is a high-performance reinforcing extender designed to reduce water transmission in cross-linked polyethylene and EPR polymer systems when used in electrical applications. The reduction in residue reduces the adverse effect that has on electrical insulative properties as well as extrusion processability. Translink 37 kaolin provides excellent initial and aged wet electrical properties.

It is recommended for use with peroxide cure systems. Typical applications include phenolics, EPR power cables, pharmaceutical rubbers, polyester gel coats, electrical connectors, electrical capacitors, TPE/TPO, wire jacketing, and silicone rubber.
