β¦ Synopsis
Blends of zinc salts of maleic anhydride-grafted EPDM rubber and carboxylated nitrile rubber behave as ionic elastomers. Measurement of physical properties suggest that the blend is compatible. It is proposed that the compatibility arises presumably due to formation of interfacial ionic aggregates. Dynamic mechanical and infrared spectroscopic studies reveal that the ionic aggregates can be solvated by ammonia.

The vulcanization of carboxylated nitrile rubber (XNBR) with zinc peroxide, which produces ionic crosslinks, has been studied in relation to vulcanization time. Vulcanized compounds present two transitions, corresponding to the glass transition of the polymer at low temperatures and the ionic transi
An ionic thermoplastic elastomer (ITPE) was prepared by melt blending zinc salts of carboxylated nitrile rubber (Zn-XNBR) and maleated high-density polyethylene (Zn-mHDPE). The synergism in physical properties of the ITPE is due to the formation of strong intermolecular ionic crosslinks, which act a
