Items related to Rubber Technology: Compounding and Testing for Performance
Synopsis
A practical guide to cost-effective formulating and testing rubber compounds intended to help compounders and technologists achieve optimal processing and product performance. Rubber compounding is considered as a series of interdependent systems, such as the elastomer, the filler-oil, the cure, the antidegrant, and other systems, and the holistic treatment shows how changes in these inter-related systems can affect specific compound properties. The 42 contributors are named but not otherwise identified, nor are specific chapter attributed to any of them.
