Abstract |
|
Nitrosamines are generated during the mixing, vulcanisation and storage of rubber articles. The major source of Nitrosamine in Rubber products is amine containing accelerators. TMTD is very widely used as a primary and sulphur donor-standalone accelerator in traditional sulphur curing systems. Due to secondary amine contents in TMTD, it produces Nitrosamine during its use. TBzTD is again of same thiuram group accelerator but without secondary amine, which results into Nitrosamine free cure. The experiment to replace TMTD from conventional Butyl rubber recipe was carried out to study and compare various physical properties of the Vulcanisate. |
