Abstract:Once it had been shown that high-activity silica, even in comparatively small additions, improves the aging resistance of latex vulcanizates by many times, and that also an effect similar to that of a coactivator is set up by the interaction of high-activity silica with age resistors, ultra-accelerators and atmospheric oxygen in latex mixtures, a like effect was to be expected in sulfur-free latex vulcanizates crosslinked by thiuram compounds. In order to get comparable data it was necessary in the first place… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
