    SANYANG RPO 220 — Low-PAH Rubber Process Oil

    SANYANG RPO 220 is a rubber process oil with standardised polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon content, used as an extender for synthetic rubbers and as a plasticiser in tyre and rubber goods compounds. Produced by selective purification of crude oil extract, it meets the same PAH limits as TDAE at a lower aromaticity and a lower price point. Malaysian origin. Supplied ex-Pasir Gudang with batch-specific certificates of analysis as standard.

    Positioning

    RPO 220 is not TDAE

    Its aromaticity is lower — aniline point up to 95 °C and Ca minimum 20%, against TDAE's 64–75 °C and Ca minimum 25%.

    It meets the same REACH PAH limits, but contributes less to wet grip in tread compounds.

    Where a formulation is specified around TDAE, substitution requires reformulation work rather than a straight swap.

    Packing & Logistics

    Supply terms

    Packaging

    Appearance

    Dark green to dark brown semi-solid.

    Packaging

    Heated handling

    Pour point runs up to 15 °C, so the product is semi-solid at cooler ambient temperatures and generally requires heated handling for discharge. Confirm receiving facility heating capability before shipment.

    Packaging

    Packing

    Road tanks, railway tanks, rail-containers, IBC containers.

    Packaging

    Shelf life

    24 months.

    ISO tank is not a standard packing option for this grade.

    Documents

    Quality & compliance

    Each SANYANG RPO 220 — Low-PAH Rubber Process Oil shipment is supplied with Certificate of Analysis (COA), Product Data Sheet (PDS) and Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS / SDS). Independent third-party inspection (SGS, Intertek or equivalent) is available on request and arranged at the loading port prior to vessel departure.

    FAQ

    Frequently asked

    Can RPO 220 replace TDAE?

    Not directly. RPO 220 has lower aromaticity (aniline point up to 95 °C, Ca min 20%) than TDAE (64–75 °C, Ca min 25%) and contributes less to wet grip in tread compounds. Where a formulation is specified around TDAE, substitution requires reformulation work.

    Is RPO 220 REACH compliant?

    Yes. Benzo[a]pyrene does not exceed 1 mg/kg and the sum of individual PAHs does not exceed 10 mg/kg, measured to EN 16143.

    What packing is available?

    Road tanks, railway tanks, rail-containers and IBC containers. ISO tank is not a standard packing option for this grade. Shelf life is 24 months.

    Does RPO 220 require heating?

    Generally yes. With a pour point up to 15 °C the product is semi-solid at cooler ambient temperatures and requires heated handling for discharge.

    What documentation is issued?

    Batch-specific COA, EN 16143:2013 PAH analysis, SDS, certificate of origin (ASEAN e-Form D where applicable), and sealed loading samples on request.
