    Dynamic mechanical properties of polybutadiene (BR) and ethylenepropylene rubber with a wide range of degree of crosslinking were studied. Dynamic shear modulus (G′) of BR increases with increasing the degree of crosslinking, while G′ of EP rubber decreases. This result of EP rubber is observed up to 70°C and frequency of over 3 cps.
    Since it is believed that the decrease of G′ can be attributed to the effect of chain entanglement, the molecular weight between entanglements (Me) was calculated from the G′ on the base′s of theories of rubber elasticity.
    From this calculation, EP rubber shows a large Me value. This is probably due to a small amount of aggregation based on the blockness in a long -(CH2)n- sequence.
    This result may suggest that the measurment of dynamic modulus as a function of degree of crosslinking is a good method for evaluating the blockness.
    In addition, it is found that experimental values of log G′/G60 (static modulus) is propotional to the average molecular weight between crosslinks in the network.

    On the peroxide cure of EPDM and EPM, the effects of various vinyl compounds having different functionalities, chain length between vinyl groups, and electron density of c=c double bond were studied.
    It was found that polyfunctional vinyl compounds (ethylene-dimethacrylate, trimethylolpropantrim-ethacrylate, N, N′-m-phenylenebismaleimide, N, N′-methylenebisacrylamide were more effective than monofunctional vinyl compounds (laurylmethacryrate, maleimide, phenylmaleimide, acrylamide).
    The dimethacrylates having the shorter chain length between the end vinyl groups and the vinyl compounds having the larger value of +e behaved the more effectiveness as the crosslinking additive on the peroxide cure of EPDM and EPM.

    The maximum elongations of sulfur-cured IR-CZ, IR-DPG, IR-TT, NBR, IIR, Silicone rubber and so on, αb•max were examined to recognize the generality of the equations proposed in the previous papers.
    αb•max=1.24(Mc/MZ)1/2
    b•max)0=1.24(Mc/MZ)1/2(ν/ν0)1/2
    where ν, Mc, M and Z are respectively cross-linking density, the molecular weight between cross-links, that of the monomeric unit and a measure of stiffness of the chain. Z was estimated from the stress-strain curves and the birefringence.
    As the experimental results, the reduced elongation ratio, (αb•max)0 was found to be about constant with respect to the kind of rubber, and αb•max was correlated with Z for rubbers tested here except IIR. (αb•max)0 of cis-polyisoprene was hardly changed by the cure system and the crosslinking density, but influenced by the kind of rubber. Thus, the maximum elongation ratio was correlated with a structual factor and others.

    The general needs, the number of necessary parameters and the parameters desirable to be involved were discussed for the analytical expression to describe the temperature dependence of strain at break in gum vulcanizates in regard to the research project aimed at correlating quantitatively the quality of rubber products with their various molecular characteristics.
    After examining the experimental data obtained for various kinds of samples, the following empirical equation was found to have general applicability to the data.
    bb•max)=1+Bllog[(T-Tg)/(Tmax-Tg)] (Tg<T≤Tmax)
    =exp[-Bh(T-Tmax)] (T>Tmax)
    Here Tg and Tmax represent respectively the glass temperature and temperature where the extension ratio at break, αb reaches its maximum value, αb•max. T stands for the absolute temperature. Bl and B are the material parameters whose values were found to range respectively from 0.4 to 0.6 and from 0.010 to 0.015 for the samples examined.
