Compounding Technology for Epichlorohydrin Rubber to Provide the Functionality Required in Various Applications

Abstract

Epichlorohydrin rubber is used for automotive and industrial rubber because it has well-balanced properties such as good heat, fuel, cold and ozone resistance. In addition, this rubber is also used for printers or copiers because of its unique semi-conductivity. Thus, the properties required for this rubber are diverse, depending on the applications. Therefore, the compounding design plays an important role in this rubber. In this report, it has been written about how to design a compound to bring out the required performance in the rubber parts.
