✦ Synopsis
Three different styrene-butadiene, gum rubbers were exposed to ?-radiation doses ranging from 0 to 200 Mrad. The crosslink densities, hardness, and the dynamic mechanical properties were evaluated. All specimens increased in hardness and crosslink density driring radiation. This was reflected in an increased storage modulus, broadened loss tangent maximum, and increased relaxation spectrum. The dynamic data are presented in master curves which were developed by using the WLF equation.
