How Garnet Impacts Rubber
A micro-powder derived from Garnet minerals is added as an inorganic filler to rubber. Its unique chemical profile, characterized by wear resistance and chemical inertness, means that garnet powder as a rubber additive brings much needed elasticity and resilience to rubber products.
Garnet-reinforced rubber also has more performant tensile strength and is more resistant to tearing when compared to rubber reinforced with other additives, such as calcium carbonate.
