| Abstract: |
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) is a type of synthetic rubber. The products of rubber have great importance in every part of life. EPDM rubber has high tensile strength, high tension, toughness, and is weather resistant. Therefore, EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene rubber) is widely used in many fields. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of accelerator type on mechanical properties and vulcanization characteristics of EPDM rubber. We used the accelerators; thiazole, sulfonamides, dithiocarbamate, thiuram, and guanidine groups. The results show that the fastest cure time and the best tensile strength are achieved with dithiocarbamates for EPDM rubber. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
