As a highlight of this work, the peroxide crosslinking was employed instead of conventional sulfur vulcanization in products requiring enhanced thermal aging resistance. With increasing mixing temperature and/or time, results of viscoelastic properties exhibit increases in rubber-filler interaction and elastic contribution of NBR vulcanizates.Mahidol UniversityEngineeringMaterials ScienceOptimization of mixing conditions for TESPT Silane Treatment in Silica-filled NBR system: Correlation of Bound Rubber Content to viscoelastic and mechanical PropertiesArticleSCOPUS
