Abstract

The processing of rubbers comprises a combination of complicated processes which realization almost always requires knowledge of their rheological behavior. The goal of the present work is to describe the rheological behavior of the EPDM vulcanizates via rotational rheometry. The effect of the cross-linking density and plasticizer content on the rheological behavior of the EPDM vulcanizates is described. The viscoelastic characteristics of the samples are defined from the frequency dependences of elasticity modulus G' and loss modulus G".
