Abstract It has been shown by Farmer and Moore that natural rubber can be vulcanized with di-tert.-butyl peroxide (DTBP), Presumably the free radicals formed by the unimolecular decomposition of the peroxide abstract some of the more labile (e.g., α-methylenic) hydrogen atoms, leading to direct C—C crosslinks between the rubber molecules, with tert.-butanol and acetone as the main reaction products. This preliminary communication presents some of the results of an investigation of the oxidative stress relaxation of the following types of DTBP vulcanizates. (A) First grade pale crepe, DTBP, and carbon black (MPC) mixed on the mill and vulcanized in a press. The carbon black was added to minimize the deleterious effect of impurities. (B) Purified rubber vulcanized: (1) in aqueous heating media; (2) in the press; (3) in DTBP vapor.

ABSTRACT Conventional sulfur-vulcanized natural rubber gums containing various antioxidants have been subjected to oxidative stress relaxation at 72 °C and 25% strain. Oxidation is diffusion controlled, even for samples as thin as 0.15 mm. Assuming that the rate of chain scission is proportional to the rate of oxygen absorption, which previously has been shown to depend on the square root of the oxygen concentration, an equation is derived predicting that stress decay is proportional to aging time to the three-quarters power. Moreover, slopes of these plots are predicted to depend inversely on thickness. Experimental results are in reasonable accord with these predictions.

Abstract Oxidative stress relaxation of peroxide vulcanizates of various grades of natural rubber has been investigated at 100° C. The rubbers were examined both with and without hot acetone extraction before or after cure. Highly purified rubber vulcanizates exhibited autocatalytic relaxation, but those based on crepe or smoked sheet did not, because they retained natural antioxidant even after extraction. Autocatalysis was no longer found in extracted purified rubber vulcanizates if these were prepared from a mix containing phenyl-β-naphthylamine. The antioxidant reduced network scission but had less effect upon the amount of crosslinking taking place during aging.

Natural Rubber Vulcanizates

Abstract The effect of high strain on the oxidative stress relaxation of several natural rubber vulcanizates has been investigated. In peroxide and CBS accelerated vulcanizates, the rate of stress relaxation increases with increasing strain, and this increase appears to be due to an increase in the rate of oxidation of the network. TMTD and MBT vulcanizates showed marked premature failure at high strains and no oxidative stress relaxation measurement could be made. The tensile strength of a TMTD vulcanizate was at least 20 per cent higher in vacuum than in oxygen, due, it is believed, to stress-induced oxidative degradation at the tip of surface flaws in the rubber.

Natural rubber/chloroprene rubber (NR/CR) blends are among the commonly used rubber blends in industry and continuously are exposed to severe weather changes. To investigate the effects of accelerator type on the network structure and stress relaxation of unaged and aged NR/CE vulcanizates, tetramethyl thiuram disulfide, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, and diphenyl guanidine accelerators have been chosen to represent fast, moderate, and slow accelerator groups, respectively. Three batches have been prepared with exactly the same components and mixing conditions differing only in accelerator type. Temperatures scanning stress relaxation and pulse nuclear magnetic resonance techniques have been used to reveal the structural changes of differently accelerated rubber blends before and after weathering. Nonoxidative thermal decomposition analyses have been carried out using a thermogravimetric analyzer. Results indicate that there is a strong interdependence between accelerator type and stress relaxation behavior, network structure, cross-linking density, and aging behavior of the blends. Accelerator type also affects decomposition energy of the blends.

Abstract The thermal and photochemical aging of extracted dicumyl peroxide-, TMTD (sulfurless)- and santocure-vulcanized rubber, in presence of a number of metal and alkylammonium dithiocarbamates, has been investigated by measurements of stress relaxation. The dithiocarbamates have a considerable protective action upon the degradation of peroxide- and TMTD-vulcanizates, but they accelerate stress decay in santocure-accelerated vulcanizates. The reasons for this behavior are discussed. It is suggested that the excellent aging properties of unextracted TMTD vulcanizates are due to the presence of zinc dimethyldithiocarbamate formed during vulcanization.
