A Comparative Study of the Effect of Crosslink Agents and Chemical Modification on Properties of Natural Rubber Vulcanizates

Article Preview

Abstract:

The influence of crosslink agents on properties of modified-NRs was investigated. The results prove that the presence of oxirane rings and/or chlorine atoms on the ENR and CENR molecules prominently affects on overall studied properties of the vulcanized rubbers. Crosslink agents also play significant role on Mooney viscosity, curing and tensile properties of the vulcanized rubbers, however, they are less influence on dynamic mechanical and thermal properties.
