Interaction of phenol-formaldehyde condensates with isoprene rubber
… butyl phenol-formaldehyde condensates and isoprene rubber under conditions resembling those used in industrial vulcanization processes, and involves investigations of reaction rates, mechanisms of reactions and structures produced. The work is an extension of an earlier study (A. Fitch, …

Tearing of Black-Filled (N660) Synthetic Polyisoprene Rubber Vulcanizates at Various Temperatures
Natural rubber (NR) has outstanding tack and strength in the unvulcanized state and high tensile and tear strength when vulcanized. These features are attributed to its ability to crystallize rapidly on straining. Synthetic isoprene rubber (IR), synthesized employing a stereospecific catalyst, …

The effect of layered double hydroxides on the vulcanisation and properties of elastomer compounds
Elastomers such as natural rubber (NR) and solution styrene butadiene rubber (SSBR) are widely used, especially in the tyre industry. These elastomers are crosslinked, most often via sulphur vulcanisation, in order to achieve the desired mechanical properties. In recent years the use of ZnO as a …

Plant proteins as multifunctional additives in polymer composites
… alcohol) (PVA) and synthetic cis-1,4-polyisoprene rubber (IR). The proteins were hydrolyzed and dispersed in the polymer matrix, where they cooperatively self-assembled into nanostructures called amyloids. Amyloids have the potential for high rigidity and stability due to high β-sheet …
