Raw Materials
Making carbon black requires six (6) materials:
Fuel (natural gas or oil)
Oxidizer (air)
Feedstock Oil (no. 6 type oil)

Utilities/Energy Conservation utilize the waste gases from the process for
energy conservation and to produce steam and/or electricity
15 to 450 m2/g
Measure of the total surface area
Surface Area
(Iodine Adsorption)
15 to 450 mg/g
Quick measure of surface area but affected by
surface chemistry
Structure (OAN)
40 to 200 ml/100 g
Carbon black particles fuse together to form
aggregates and agglomerates
Tread
Carcass
Particle Size
A function of reaction temperature, reaction time and reaction
velocity

Structure
Higher additive rate lower OAN
Low structure
Low OAN higher production rates
High structure
High OAN lower production rates
OAN = Oil Adsorption Number
