Abstract

Abstract (1) Networks containing mainly monosuifidic crosslinks at methylene sites in the polyisoprene chains of natural rubber are expected to be more thermally stable than existing efficiently vulcanized networks. (2) Certain zinc-accelerator species promote the decomposition of crosslinks at high temperatures, but may be deactivated by complexation with zinc stearate (which is formed from stearic acid during vulcanization).
