As a result of a search for a method for the simultaneous analysis of organic compounding ingredients in vulcanized rubber by one dimensional and two dimensional thin layer chromatography, a method was discovered by which it was possible to identify directly 24 accelerators and 19 antioxidants. The sample was developed on a Wakogel B-5 (silica gel) plate with chloroform/benzene (10/9) in one direction and then with ethanol in the other direction. The plate was sprayed with formalin/sulfuric acid (1/4) and then heated for one hour at 120° C. It was found that the 43 compounding ingredients could all be identified from their Rƒ values and the colors of the spots. Good results were also obtained in the actual analysis of the organic compounding ingredients in vulcanized rubbers. Investigation of interference by the base rubbers showed that the organic compounding ingredients could be identified. Translator's note: According to the English summary, the silica gel contains 5% of calcined gypsum. This is not mentioned in the Japanese text.
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.
