High cis-polybutadiene (neodymium catalyst)

High cis-polybutadiene (neodymium catalyst)

Our high cis-butadiene rubber (NdBR) with a cis content of approximately 97% is used in the tyre industry for tread and sidewall compounds and is also used in other industries for a range of elastomeric products.

Sold under the SYNTECA® brand, NdBR is manufactured using a neodymium catalyst system and due to its low glass transition temperature, low polydispersity level and linear structure it is used for tyre compounds that provide excellent wear properties and low rolling resistance.

NdBR is supplied as bales wrapped in polyethylene (PE) foil and packaged in returnable metal boxes.

All SYNTECA® NdBR products are also available as bio/circular-attributed NdBR under ISCC Plus certification.
