“…Usually, the mixing of rubber compound uses shear force in elastic state to make the compounding ingredients disperse well [1][2][3]. Under some mixing conditions, the milling up and sheeting behaviors of compounds are related with the state of rubber compound, and also the character and green strength of rubber compound [1][2][3]22]. When CR compound is mixed, it is usually prone to scorch because of the heat released during mixing, and even if some processing agents are added, its green strength in particulate state is too weak at higher temperatures [4].…”

The viscoelastic properties of the blends of chloroprene rubber (CR) with ethylene-propylene-diene monomer rubber (EPDM), polybutadiene rubber (BR), and natural rubber (NR) at different temperature were studied using rubber processing analyzer (RPA). Mooney viscosities of compounds were measured and tight milling and sheeting appearance were observed on a two-roll mill. The results showed that Mooney viscosities and the elastic modulus of the blends decreased with the increase of the temperature from 60 to 1008C. And the decreasing trends of pure CR, pure NR, and CR/NR blend compounds were more prominent than that of pure EPDM, pure BR, CR/ EPDM, and CR/BR blend compounds. For CR/EPDM blend compounds, the decreasing trend became slower with the increase of EPDM ratio in the blend. Compared with pure CR, pure NR and CR/NR blend compounds, pure EPDM, pure BR compounds, and the blend compounds of CR/EPDM and CR/BR showed less sensibility to temperature and they were less sticky to the metal surface of rolls and could be kept in elastic state at higher temperature, easy to be milled up and sheeted. At the same blend ratio and temperature, the property of tight milling of the blends decreased in the sequence of CR/ EPDM, CR/BR, and CR/NR. With the increase of EPDM, BR, or NR ratio in CR blends, its property of tight milling was improved. POLYM. COMPOS.

“…Generally, the mixing of rubber compound is carried out in its elastic state, because the elastic shear forces can make the compounding ingredients disperse well [1][2][3]. Chloroprene rubber (CR) has outstanding antiaging and self-reinforcement properties, and it is not easy to stick to rolls at or close to room temperature.…”
