RESEARCH LABORATORY 92 GREENWOOD AVE. MONTCLAIR. N. J. 070*2 Mr. Julius K. Nemeth Bondex International Brunswick, Ohio 44212 I Dear Mr. Nemeth: In reply to your letter dated September 25, 1975, enclosed please find our Material Safety Data Sheet on Apex Clay which we deliver to your Toms River facility. I have also enclosed our Data Sheet PB-7 which describes the typical physical characteristics and chemical composition of Apex clay. Apex clay is a natural product and does not contain any additives. If we can provide additional information that will be helpful, please advise. We are appreciative of the business you place with us and look forward to serving you in the future. Very truly yours HCS:ch bon - 01050 Sales Offices CABTERSVILLE, GA. 30120 EAST ORANGE. N. J. 07018 PRODUCT BULLETIN Research Laboratory 92 GREENWOOD AVENUE MONTCLAIR. N. J. 07042 SNOBRITE CLAY - APEX CLAY SNOBRITE and APEX are two grades of clay produced and sold in large volume by Thompson, Weinman and Company. Both of these grades of kaolin display the high absorption properties and/or "hard clay" characteristics. The principal difference between them is that SNOBRITE has consistently a very high pigment brightness for this type of product, whereas APEX Clay has a more ordinary color and thus is used where maximum economy is needed and/or where color characteristics are not too criti cal. It is well known that some large volume uses of "hard clay" do not need the best brightness. Thus in such products APEX serves as a most valuable extender pigment The principal end uses where these clays are particularly beneficial are 1) in rubber soles and heels, 2) in rubber and vinyl flooring, 3) in mechanical rubber goods, 4) in metal undercoaters, primers, emulsion and latex paints, 5) in resin base mastics, 6) in rug backing, 7) in polyester "gunks" and 8) as a filler clay for the paper indus try. As previously stated these clays can be recommended for use in high tensile, high modulus and high hardness rubber compounds. However, if "soft clay" characteristics are desired in a rubber stock a blend of one of these "hard clays" with a finely ground grade of calcium carbonate, such as DRIKALITE, is to be recommended. The following typical chemical composition and typical physical constants are given to show the similarities and differences in these two kaolin pigments.
