Radioisotope methods have been analyzed to study the dispersion of sulfur in rubber compounds. The radioactivity of the 35S isotope introduced into rubber compounds has been measured by volumetric and surface methods. These methods can be applied to investigate physical and chemical processes in rub

β¦ Synopsis
The influence of temperature and storage time of polymeric sulfur from different producers on its behavior in rubber compounds was studied. Also, the influence of activation by neutron irradiation on a quantity of an insoluble fraction in polymeric sulfur was investigated. To better understand the reason of the small difference in properties of tested polymeric sulfur, its topological structures were evaluated using a thermomechanical method. It was confirmed by a previous conclusion that these kinds of polymeric sulfur have very similar topological structure, and as a result, their behavior in rubber compounds should be practically the same. Studying the reason of blooming in the mineral sulfur it was found that at normal storage conditions, sublimation and oxidative degradation of soluble sulfur could be negligible. For these measurements radioisotopic methods were used.

The breakthrough time of sulfur mustard (SM) against blends of natural and nitrile rubbers was determined using the spot disc test (SDT) method. The breakthrough time of SM is closely related to the elongation properties of the blended rubbers. Blends containing higher proportions of nitrile rubber
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 The synergistic activity of binary accelerator systems in rubber vulcanization is well known. Binary accelerator systems are being widely used in industry and are becoming increasingly popular because of the fact that such mixed systems can effectively prevent prevulcanization, permit t
