Abstract

Abstract A polychloroprene material has been developed which can replace the natural rubber materials traditionally used in dynamic, fatigue-producing applications, when these applications require high temperature stability. An optimized compound based on a mercaptan modified polychloroprene with large particle high structure carbon black, silica filler and rapeseed oil has superior compression set, improved heat aged fatigue life and comparable dynamic properties to current NR compounds. This CR compound was designed to have good fatigue life while keeping compression set to a minimum. A positive correlation between tear resistance and fatigue life has been demonstrated for a series of CR compounds.
