Albany Engineered Composites will display 

Pyropel polyimide insulation products for use 

insulating molding equipment and tooling. Pyropel 

MD-18 is a tough lightweight material that 

can be easily applied to the perimeter of mold 

and dies reducing heat loss. The benefits of this 

type of insulation are improved temperature 

uniformity, faster start up and energy savings 

resulting in increased product quality and lower 

operating cost. Pyropel MD-60 is a compression 

resistant grade used for platen or tool base 

insulator plates. The major benefit of this material 

is improved pressure distribution and longer 

insulator life resulting in more uniform molded 

parts and significant decrease in equipment 

maintenance cost.

In crosslinking applications, organic peroxide 

products act on the polymer itself, not the 

initial monomer. The organic peroxide “builds 

bridges” between the polymer chains to 

improve the mechanical properties and heat 

resistance of the product. In rubber, they are an 

excellent alternative to traditional vulcanization 

systems (sulfur) to provide nitrosamine-free 

solutions. Arkema has over 50 years of experience 

in manufacturing organic peroxides. 

These products include organic peroxides sold 

under the Luperox, Di-Cup, and Vul-Cup trade 

names.

INTRODUCING RHENOCURE ® TP/S 

Rhein Chemie has merged production 

of VOCOL ® ZBPD powder with our 

equivalent RHENOCURE ® TP/S. 

Rhein Chemie has merged production of VOCOL ® ZBPD POWDER with our equivalent RHENOCURE ® TP/S. The VOCOL ® PDR 

brand is discontinued and the new product will be sold as RHENOCURE ® TP/S. Rhein Chemie has slightly modified the odor and 

storage stability of the formulation and believes this adjustment will make future RHENOCURE ® TP/S product supplies more secure. 

RHENOCURE ® TP/S has 67% of active ingredient on 33% silica compared to Vocol‘s 75% activity level. Although both powders 

were often used alternatively, some formulations may require adjustment. 

For customers requiring a polymer bound product, Rhein Chemie offers RHENOGRAN ® TP-50 with a 50% activity level. For technical 

assistance contact Jon Nienaber, Rhein Chemie Technical Service Department at jon.nienaber@rheinchemie.com or 440-279-1285.

Sigmasoft - elastomer injection molding 

process simulation - generates simulations 

in a fundamentally different way than traditional 

simulation tools. User-friendly process 

simulation considers all mold components, 

cooling channels, electrical heaters, thermocouples, 

complete runner system, inserts, 

and part geometries. The entire injection 

molding process is simulated. This leads 

to much higher accuracy in the simulation 

results, which in turn allows engineers to 

validate, optimize, and make accurate and 

confident decisions about tooling designs 

and process parameters for the entire process 

window. This provides production engineers 

with the ability to set up a sustainable 

and repeatable molding process, assuring 

the production of good parts under a variety 

of conditions.

Why Join? 


“The Rubber Division membership includes 

the most talented professionals in our industry. 

Having been in the Rubber and Plastics Industry 

for over 27 years, I began joining local rubber 

groups and in 2003 was further encouraged by 

my organization to assume a more active role in 

the Rubber Division. My first committee was 

Student Affairs. 

I soon recognized my association with the 

Rubber Division, as well as with local rubber 

groups, was very beneficial – allowing me to 

keep up with market trends and technology, 

meet helpful industry professionals, and develop 

lasting friendships. Since that first phone call to 

the Rubber Division in 2003, I have enjoyed 

being on various committees in both local 

Rubber Groups and the Rubber Division. It is 

an invaluable network serving both industry 

newcomers and long time members. It needs 

our support! 

Why join? Why not? The benefits are great!”

TIPS FOR A SAFE STAY IN CLEVELAND 

• Attendees should be aware of their surroundings at all times. 

• Don’t wear your meeting badge outside the convention center or 

hotels. 

• Don’t wear fancy jewelry or carry expensive technology in plain sight. 

• Carry your briefcase, tote bag, purse or laptop carrier close to your 

body. 

• Don’t leave valuables in your hotel room. Use a hotel safe deposit box. 

• Walk in open well-lit areas at night. 

• Travel in groups. Don’t be a loner, particularly in the evening. 

• Use common sense. If someone or someplace looks suspicious, report 

it and/or avoid it. 

• If an emergency occurs during a meeting event, report emergencies 

to the nearest security guard or to any Rubber Division, ACS staff 

member. 

• If an emergency occurs outside a Rubber Division, ACS event, contact 

police or emergency assistance by dialing 911 or seeking assistance 

from the facility where the emergency occurs. 

• Should a catastrophic event occur while the meeting is under way, 

follow safety and security instructions issued by the facility where you 

are located at the time of the event.
