What types of carbon black are there?

Carbon black, primarily composed of carbon, has particle sizes ranging from 10 to 100 nm, making it one of the earliest nano-materials utilized by humans. It boasts excellent rubber reinforcing, plastic coloring, conductive or anti-static, and UV protection properties. Its applications are extensive, spanning numerous industries.

Carbon black can be divided into two main categories based on manufacturing methods: incomplete combustion carbon black and pyrolytic carbon black. Incomplete combustion carbon black can further be classified into furnace black,槽black, acetylene black, mixed gas black, lamp black, drum black.

Carbon black can be divided into two main categories based on its application: rubber carbon black and non-rubber carbon black, also known as special carbon black. Rubber carbon black is further categorized into hard carbon black and soft carbon black according to its reinforcing properties of the rubber it fills. Non-rubber carbon black is classified based on its applications, including pigment carbon black, conductive carbon black, plastic-specific carbon black, and various specialized carbon blacks.
