Resorcinol (Rubber-to-Cord Bonding Agent)
CAS Number: 108-46-3
Resorcinol is used in rubber compounding as a methylene acceptor in combination with hexamethylene tetramine (HMT) or HMMM to form an in-situ resole resin within the rubber matrix, providing excellent adhesion between the rubber compound and textile or steel cord reinforcements. The resorcinol-HMT/HMMM system (RF system) is widely used in tire carcass, belt, and bead compounds to improve cord pull-out resistance and interfacial bonding strength.
