✦ Synopsis


Surface energy of EPDM, silicone rubber, and their 50 : 50 (by weight) blend during aging was determined by contact angle measurement using water and formamide as the probe liquids. The surface energy increases initially with aging time. The results are explained on the basis of the polar component of the surface energy. Blending offers a good degree of protection toward aging of EPDM rubber. The generation of polar groups during aging is confirmed by IR and ESCA investigations.

## Abstract A novel UFNBRP/EPDM blend was prepared by compounding ultra‐fine full‐vulcanized acrylonitrile butadiene rubber particles (UFNBRP) with ethylene–propylene–diene monomer (EPDM) matrix. The morphology, dynamic property, and curing property of the blend were discussed in detail. TEM and SE
