| Research Abstract |
Vulcanization of NBR, BR and SBR rubbers was carried out in a compression mold equipped with two electrodes for the electric measurement. Progress of vulcanization was followed by the measurement of dielectric loss tangent (tanδ) and electric current applying alternating or direct voltage. The conductivity was calculated from electric current, dimension of an electrode, etc. Rubber compounds with 40phr of carbon black to 100phr of rubber, or without carbon black were prepared. The tanδand conductivity-cure time curves were compared with the torque-cure time curve, which is widely used as a cure curve. The following result was obtained. (1)The vulcanization of NBR with and without carbon black could be followed by measuring tanδor conductivity applying alternate or direct voltage. (2)The vulcanization of BR without carbon black could be followed by measuring conductivity applying direct voltage. (3)The vulcanization of SBR without carbon black could be followed by measuring tanδapplying alternate voltage. (4)The vulcanization of BR and SBR with carbon black could not be followed, because much electric current flew at the early stage of vulcanization.
