Polymer compounding
Calcium carbonate, talc and specialty fillers for stiffness, dimensional stability and cost-performance balance.
Markets we serve
Polymers, Rubber & Coatings
Functional fillers, pigments and processing aids for formulated material systems.
Materials for Polymers, Rubber & Coatings
Functional minerals for formulated material systems
Minerals do more than add volume to polymers, rubber and coatings. They can reinforce a compound, control rheology, improve opacity, support curing and change thermal or electrical properties.
Redwater Materials supplies functional fillers, pigments and specialty mineral additives for compounders, coating manufacturers, rubber processors and engineered-product companies.
Applications
Where these materials are used
Selected mineral and specialty material applications across the polymers, rubber & coatings market.
Rubber systems
Silica, zinc oxide and mineral additives used in reinforcement, processing and cure packages.
Architectural and industrial coatings
Titanium dioxide, extenders and functional minerals for opacity, durability and rheology.
Adhesives and sealants
Mineral fillers selected for viscosity, strength, gap filling and application behaviour.
Surface-modified minerals
Treated products designed for dispersion and compatibility with specific resin systems.
Material performance
Dispersion and surface chemistry drive results
Two minerals with the same chemical identity can behave differently because of particle size, shape, coating, surface area and moisture. These characteristics should match the formulation and equipment.
- Particle-size and surface-area data
- Surface treatment information
- Colour and brightness values
- Moisture and dispersion performance
- Batch-to-batch consistency
Relevant material families
We support custom mineral formulations, distribution, testing and continued supply for approved polymer, rubber and coating applications.
