✦ Synopsis
This paper contains results on electrical conduction in 1,4-cis-polybutadiene. Measurements were performed for thin films of thickness from 1 to 10 υm with gold and aluminium electrodes. Study was made in the temperature range from 15 to 325 K for two types of polybutadienes: (1) containing 100% of cis form, from Aldrich; (2) containing 96% of cis form, from Philips Petroleum Co. It was found that direct conduction is determined by the Poole-Frenkel effect with some hopping and the Schottky effect. Evaluation of activation energies gave results from 0.3 to 0.36 eV.

The steady-state viscosity of a number of cis-polybutadienes was determined aa a function of shear rate and temperature by use of a capillary rheometer. Polymera investigated differed in molecular weight distribution and long chain branching. None of the polymers exhibited Newtonian behavior, even a
Some grades of cis-1,4-polybutadiene contain dispersed crystalline particles made up of a block copolymer having amorphous cis-1,4-and crystalline 1,2 blocks. The particles are known to enhance the strain-induced crystallization of cis-1,4 matrix rubber. The deformational behavior was examined by dy
cis-1,4-Polybutadiene (BR) samples, in the absence of crosslinking agents, were simultaneously compressed by ultrahigh pressures ( ú4.0 GPa) and annealed between 25 and 180ЊC. The BR samples were crosslinked when the annealing temperatures were above 100ЊC. The Vickers microhardness of the treated B
