Abstract

The vulcanization of butyl rubber by p‐quinone dioxime oxidized by red lead and tetrachloroquinone was investigated. The maximum physical effective crosslinking density of the vulcanizates appeared to be when p‐quinone dioxime and the oxidizing agent were equimolar. The formation of one physical effective crosslink required one molecule of p‐quinone dioxime. Chemical reactions are suggested for the vulcanization steps.
