✦ Synopsis

EPDM-silicone rubber blends prepared by melt mixing have been compression moulded into sheets and crosslinked by gamma irradiation. The permeability of the blends to methanol vapour has been measured at room temperature. It changes progressively with membrane composition and no threshold can be detected at phase inversion. The results are discussed in relationship with the morphology of the blends.
