DESCRIPTION

Chemists and engineers working on further development and optimization of rubber compounds for the rubber industry require characteristic values for a large number of compound ingredients, as well as information on how these ingredients influence the processing operation and the properties of the vulcanised product. In this volume, these characteristic values and the functional correlations, which used to be scattered over a wide variety of reference books, publications and company literature, are combined, offering a fundamental tool for the rubber engineer and processor. The goal of Elastomer Processing is to provide a fundamental tool for chemists working in the field of compounding, using calculation functions, evaluation methods, and tables of material characteristics. The equations and calculation methods set out in this book, together with the various product tables, can be used to calculate influences on the property profile of compound systems from the functional relationships presented. The time and outlay spent on experimental work can thus be reduced, and the risk of erroneous developments can be cut back.
