Axneripol Micro-Black c u t s r u b b e r m i x i n g t i m e 20%.•• steps up production at Bata Shoe The Bata Shoe Company recently faced production problems in their winter line of footwear. When using free black, color contamination was delaying production. Whenever a light color run followed production of black items, Bata was forced to close the line while equipment was painstakingly cleaned. It was a time-consuming, messy job. For Bata, the solution was a changeover to GoodrichGulf Ameripol Micro-Black Masterbatch. Using Ameripol 1605, the most delicate pastel shades now follow black with no contamination problems. And, equipment, employees and production lines stay clean. Mixing time
has been cut from a two-stage to a one-stage operation, saving as much as 20% in time. If you manufacture shoes, tires, camelback, coated fabrics or any other black rubber products, consider Ameripol Micro-Black Masterbatch for this three-fold payoff . . . in production by eliminating weighing and milling operations plus shortening mixing time . . . in storage by eliminating in-plant handling of carbon black . . . in products by assuring thorough dispersion of carbon black in the rubber for increased abrasion resistance, lower heat build-up.
