Rubber Accelerators Physico-Chemical Behaviour of Safer Accelerators in Deproteinized Natural Rubber Latex Abstract Natural rubber latex is commonly used in a wide range of industrial applications due to its excellent elastomeric, mechanical and barrier...

Rubber Accelerators Influence of Accelerators on the Structure, Properties and Processing of Synthetic Polyisoprene Latex Abstract Synthetic polyisoprene polymer is made up of the same monomer unit 'isoprene' as in natural rubber. This material has been...

Rubber Accelerators Novel Sustainable Accelerator Systems for Natural and Synthetic Polyisoprene Latex without added Zinc oxide Abstract Both natural and synthetic latex based products vulcanised with conventional accelerators exhibit Type IV allergic reaction....

Rubber Accelerators Sustainable Accelerators for Synthetic Lattices - Update Abstract Synthetic lattices are free from natural proteins and do not exhibit Type I allergic reactions. Predominantly, they are vulcanised with conventional thiazoles, dithiocarbamates...

Rubber Accelerators Sustainable and Safer Accelerators for the Latex Industry Abstract Diene containing latex polymers utilise sulphur vulcanisation along with individual or mixtures of accelerator types (dithiocarbamates, thiurams and thiazoles) to produce...

Rubber Accelerators Technological and Physico-chemical Behaviour of Safer Accelerators in Synthetic Polyisoprene Latex Abstract The conventional accelerators like dithiocarbamates, thiurams and mercaptobenzothiazoles are highly effective in the vulcanisation of...
