✦ Synopsis
Sol fraction and swelling values have been determined for a series of natural rubbersulfur-diphenylguanidine vulcanizates. These data have been analyzed in terms of the Charlesby and Pinner gel network formation theory with a view to estimating the amount of permanent molecular chain scission accompanying the vulcanization. It is concluded that negligible chain scission occurs before the point of modulus revelaion of these curves. In the region of cure reversion, permanent molecular chain scission does occur to a small extent. The principal factor responsible for cure reversion in this vulcanizate is crosslink scission. Chain scission is responsible for only about 3-8% of the observed cure reversion.

The synergistic activity of binary accelerator systems in rubber vulcanization is well known. Thiourea and its derivatives are important secondary accelerators in this context. It is suggested that thiourea containing binary systems of rubber vulcanization proceed by a nucleophilic reaction mechanis
## Abstract This article deals with our study of the thermooxidative degradation of medical natural rubber latex tubes prepared with sulfur‐prevulcanized latex (sample I) and peroxide‐prevulcanized latex (sample II) in a dynamic air atmosphere by the use of the thermogravimetry/differential thermog
