Introduction for carbon black users4Q -2019
Delta-Energy Group – who are we?
Put simply…we recover chemicals from post-consumer scrap tire rubber
Partnering with Delta-Energy means
• Lower raw materials costs → Protection from 2020 virgin CB price increases
• Higher recycled content → lower carbon footprint
• Excellent customer & technical service
Delta-Energy Group history
Roles of current equity stakeholders
• RJ Lee Group – Our founder and technical support partner
• Bridgestone – Our first outside investor and a current customer
• CCI – Our majority owner and growth partner

DEPolymerization™• Unique → catalyzed, continuous and hundreds of degrees lower than typical pyrolysis• Preserves surface area and structure of original carbon black
The Delta-Energy difference
Delta-Energy carbon finishing process• Enables full access to the recovered carbon black surface• Increased reinforcement and ultimate compound durability
The Delta-Energy finishing process allows our customers to take full
advantage of D-E Black®
D-E Black®
• D-E Black is a blend carbon black materials typically found in consumer tires
• Our low temperature DEPolymerization™ process enables us preserve the original structure and surface area
• Colloidal testing is shown for illustration purposes only and is not predictive of compound performance.→ Testing in your specific compound is required
Typical pyrolysis charLoss of surface area and void volume…graphite
formation
D-E Black®Similar surface area and void volume
Virgin N326
Graphite
Same performance time after time
• D-E Black shows 100% modulus equivalent to virgin N762 with improved tensile and elongation
D-E Black® has insignificant
impact on cure rate
Typical max substitution rates
N700 Up to 100%
N600 Up to 100%
N550 Up to 50%
N300 Up to 30%
D-E Black® shows same
100% modulus
How much D-E Black®can you use?
Every rubber application is different. How you use D-E Black® depends on your formula’s performance requirements.
