In order to "cure" or "vulcanize" an elastomer, ie, cross-link the macromolecular chains (Fig. 2), certain chemical ingredients are mixed or compounded with the mbber, depending on its nature (4,5). The mixing process depends on the type of elastomer a high viscosity type, eg, natural mbber, requires powerhil mixers (such as the Banbury type or mbber mills), while the more Hquid polymers can be handled by ordinary rotary mixers, etc (see Rubber...

The photograph shows the two elements of the drive the electrical motor and the gear reducer. Their large size is due to the very large power requirements of the mixer.
