Mineral Additive Selection for EVA and NBR Footwear Foams

If you formulate EVA or NBR footwear foam, a talc purchase should be tied to your cell structure, density and mechanical targets.

Relia's talc candidates can be reviewed against that brief.

From Your Requirement to a Defined Grade

Relia manufactures industrial talc materials in China through its own factories.

Our talc enquiry should name the polymer system and the result your footwear material needs. Share the current mineral, foaming system and accepted density or flexibility range with Relia. The candidate grade needs a clear particle specification, while your matched foam trial establishes its practical contribution.

The Foam Target

FT-AR992 and FT-AYB92P are listed with 1500–3000 mesh designations for different foam enquiries. The broader EVA/NBR foaming-talc entry provides another route. We first connect each proposed grade to your polymer, foaming method and finished-sole requirements, rather than assign a cell-size result from mesh alone.

Your trial and acceptance

Cells and Flexibility Together

Compare candidates in a fixed polymer and foaming system, with mixing and cure history recorded. Review the cell structure together with density and the required finished-sole properties. A visually fine cell structure is only useful if the material also meets the application's mechanical requirements.

Manufacturing and grade controls

Mineral Selection, Milling and Classification

Talc preparation involves size reduction and classification of a naturally platy mineral. Particle condition and dispersion can influence how it behaves in a foaming formulation, but they do not establish a universal cell-size or density improvement. Keep the powder data with the mixing and foaming history so the trial can locate the source of a changed result.

  1. Define the mineral grade

    Talc proposals need their own composition and relevant impurity requirements.

  2. Reduce and classify

    Milling and size separation create the particle fraction supplied to the formulation.

  3. Retain the physical description

    Platy character, particle distribution and powder condition are separate from a use-related grade title.

  4. Compare in the actual system

    Keep those material data with the formulation and process that produce the foam or compound.

Particles
Request a distribution relevant to the application instead of relying on mesh alone.
Condition
Identify supplied moisture or agglomeration information where it matters.
Finished material
Judge the foam or component under matched preparation and test conditions.
Keep the proposed grade's production route and measured acceptance limits together in the material specification.
07 / 11
From sample to supply

A System-Specific Approval

Keep the accepted foam specimen, additive sample and grade identity connected. We discuss supply within that tested scope. A different polymer or foaming process then has a clear reason for another evaluation.
