Carbon black refers to “black” in carbon, meaning black colorant made of carbon.
Carbon black improves the thermal resistance, wear resistance, and hardness of rubber when producing tires.
The most common use of carbon black is in automobile tires. It is also used as pigments for plastics and semiconductive screens for power cables. OCI strives to diversify product grades to expand its carbon black product lineup, and seeks opportunities to create high value-added new products such as electric vehicle tire carbon black and conductive carbon black.
