About 25% of polymerized styrene is in the copolyrner form. The largest volume copolymer is SBR (25% styrene, 75% butadiene-rubber), used for making tires, hoses, belts, footwear, foam rubber, rubber-coated fabrics, and adhesives. ... 

Electric cables treated with a thin layer of metallic selenium are flame-proof to a remarkable degree, thus minimising the risk of fire through short-circuiting of heavy currents. The cotton or rubber used for covering the wire may itself be treated with the selenium and so rendered non-inflammable flame-proof switchboards, etc., may also be constructed. 

Filler—A relatively inexpensive substance added to a polymer during processing to add bulk and perhaps to improve properties. (e.g., carbon black in rubber used for automobile tires). 

Polyisobutylene is one of the components of butyl rubber used for making inner tubes. 

In Auschwitz, the largest camp, a considerable proportion of the inmates were assigned to work in I.G. Farbenindustrie factories for the manufacture of Buna - synthetic rubber - used for the production of tires and therefore a very important product. In his standard work on the Holocaust, Raul Hilberg reports 38... 

Dall Asta, of Moiitccaiini Edison, investigated the metathesis of cycloalkenes in the presence of a catalyst consisting of tungsten hexachloride, aluminium trichloride and carbon dioxide as the catalyst promoter. The products, the polyalkenamcrs, were vulcanized to give an elastic rubber useful for lires (304,... 

The major problems associated with silicone rubber used for contact lens stem from the surface properties. The surface is hydrophobic and hinders the spontaneous... 

The degree of cross-linking affects the rubber s properties. Harder rubber used for automobile tires has more cross-linking than the softer rubber used for rubber bands. 

After a time delay, the acid will eat through the rubier disc and ignite the sugar chlorate mix. The delay time depends upon the thickness and type of rubber used for the disc. Before using this device, tests should be conducte determine the delay time that can be expected. 

In all four formulations, however, there is also a pronounced dependence of the phase-separation process on the nature of the diamine and the epoxi-dized triglyceride rubber used for their preparation. As mentioned earlier, the DGEBA/DDS matrix is more polar than the DGEBA/DDM matrix because DDS is more polar than the DDM diamine. ESR is more polar than VR because the epoxy functionality of the initial ESO is twice as high as the epoxy functionality of VO. Both the particle-size distribution and the rubber content at which phase inversion occurs are determined by the miscibility of the two phases of the four types of formulations discussed. 

The material used was a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) based epoxy resin (Ciba-Geigy, GY250) cured using stoichiometric amounts of 4,4 -diamin-odiphenyl sulfone (DDS). The rubber used for the modifications was Hycar car-boxy-teminated butadiene-acrylonitrile (CTBN) rubber (1300 x 13). The curing schedule for all the rubber-modified epoxy-DDS systems was as follows first the rubber and then DDS were mixed with the epoxy resin and stirred at 135 °C until the DDS was dissolved the systems were cured for 24 h at 120 °C and then postured for 4 h at 180 °C. The control epoxies were cured according to the same schedule. 

Nipol AR. [Zeon] Acrylic rubber used for seals, o-rings, gaskets, automotive parts, etc. 

The petrol-resistant rubber used for the wiper ring and gland cannot ensure reliable operation of the system. Due to intensive wear by abrasive particles the wiper ring and glands fracture and the productivity of the pump drops abruptly. To enhance the durability of the seal the wiper ring is made of an INHAM material. The oil solution of Cl isolating from the seal during... 

Elastic PVC articles are inferior in comparison to vulcanized rubbers used for production of corrugated pipe articles regarding their tensile and tear strengths, and deterioration of their flexibility with time of use. This was improved by multilayer material. Three layered material gave the best performance. The outer layer was made out of polyester elastomer (Pelprene P-70B), the inner layer from polyester elastomer (Hytrel HTG-4275), and the intermediate layer from PVC having formulation given in the above table. 

Addition of rubbery materials, however, does improve the impact resistance of polystyrene. This is therefore done extensively. The most common rubbers used for this purpose are butadiene-styrene copolymers. Some butadiene homopolymers are also used, but to a lesser extent. The high-impact polystyrene is presently prepared by dissolving the rubber in a styrene monomer and then polymerizing the styrene. This polymerization is either done in bulk or in suspension. The product contains styrene-butadiene rubber, styrene homopolymer, and a considerable portion of styrene-graft copolymer that forms when polystyrene radicals attack the rubber molecules. The product has very enhanced impact resistance.

CM-1,4-Polybutadiene is one of the most important rubbers used for technical purposes and is produced with a high degree of stereoregularity using conventional Ziegler-Natta catalysts. Moreover, the other possible stereoregular microstructures are also known for PBD (tra s-l,4-polybutadiene, isotactic 1,2-polybutadiene, and syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene). 

Natural rubber/chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubber blends also exhibited immiscibility. Chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubber is the synthetic rubber used for applications in electric cables, hoses for liquid chemicals, waterproof cloths, floor tiles, and oil-resistant seals. It is chosen to blend with natural rubber to improve the resistance of natural rubber to ozone, oil, heat, flame and non-polar chemicals. This is due to the effect of the polarity of the chlorine groups in the chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubber. The tensile strength, elongation at break, and tear strength of these blends decreased with the increasing chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubber contents. In addition, the compatible natural rubber/chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubber blends were improved by adding the epoxidized natural rubber (Epoxyprene 25) as a...
