โœฆ Synopsis


Neutralization of maleated EPDM rubber by zinc oxide results in an ionic elastomer. The rate and extent of the neutralization reaction increase by addition of stearic acid. Although the rubber is not easy processable as such, incorporation of zinc stearate at a loading of 30 phr makes the rubber behave like a thermoplastic during high temperature (>15OoC) processing. Furthermore, zinc stearate causes improvement in the physical properties of the rubber under ambient conditions. It is believed that zinc stearate acts as a reinforcing filler under ambient conditions and as a plasticizer for the ionic domains a t higher temperature (that is, above its melting point, 128ยฐC). The conclusions are based on the results of dynamic mechanical, rheological, and infrared spectroscopic studies.

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.
