Abstract
Abstract
The processibility of elastomers can be studied systematically by splitting up the process into component unit operations. By applying the theories of applied mechanics and taking into consideration the viscoelastic nature of raw rubbers modest theoretical progress has been made in predicting and correcting processing deficiencies. Important viscoelastic properties affecting the rheological behavior of rubbers have been identified. The existing relationships between macromolecular structure and the important viscoelastic properties have been presented for several synthetic rubbers. The dependence of some unit operations such as milling, calendering, and building on maximum relaxation time and viscosity has been demonstrated.
