Application of a New Twin-Screw Extruder to the Waste Tire Regeneration

Abstract:

This paper uses a new twin-screw extruder for regeneration of waste tire crumb rubber, discusses the influence of screw speed and reaction temperature on the physical and mechanical properties of reclaimed rubber. Experimental results show that different screw speed and reaction temperature has a great impact on the physical and mechanical properties of the reclaimed rubber. When controls screw speed in the 60 ~ 90 r / min, reaction temperature at 170 to 210°C,the regeneration effect is the best. At this time, the physical and mechanical properties of reclaimed rubber, such as tensile strength, tear strength and elongation at break rate, is the best.
