Naturally occurring amino acid: Novel curatives for chloroprene rubber

Abstract: Polychloroprene is a diene rubber, but unlike other diene rubbers, its compounding with various additives and curing mechanisms is different. A derivative of thiourea, ethylene thiourea (ETU), is widely used to vulcanize chloroprene rubber (CR), and the vulcanizates thus obtained exhibit excellent mechanical properties, good aging resistance, and very good sealing properties. However, the problem is that ETU is reported to be a potent carcinogenic compound, and hence, the effective substitution for ETU has bee… Show more

“…The ZnO can generate crosslinks between two chloroprene units via a cationic mechanism, and the ETU can crosslink the CR alone and also in combination with ZnO. CR can also be crosslinked with other ingredients such as amino acid derivatives, thiophosphoryl disulfides, and fillers . CR can also be blended with other elastomers to improve properties such as low temperature flexibility and mechanical properties.…”

“…Metal oxide‐, thiuram‐, and thiourea‐based curing agents, particularly ethylene thiourea (ETU), are widely used to cure CR 7. Recently, newer curing agents, include thiophosphoryl disulfides, dimethyl l‐cystine, and cetyltrimethylammonium maleate, have been reported 8–10. Although there are many published works on various curing agents for CR, the most practical curing agents are still metal oxides due to the superior mechanical properties of the cured products.…”

“…The mechanism proposed by Vukov based on the theory of Kuntz et al using model compounds is considered as the most appropriate mechanism for the crosslinking of CR with ZnO [16,17]. Apart from ZnO or ETU, other chemicals such as, tribasic lead sulphate; thiophosphoryl disulfides; dimethyl L-cystine; and cetyltrimethylammonium maleate (CTMAM) have also been used as curing agents for CR [18][19][20][21]. Recently, Dziemid-kiewicz et al have used certain metal acetylacetonate as pro-ecological crosslinking agents for CR based on the Heck coupling reaction [22].…”
