Book Description
The book begins by introducing the fundamentals of natural rubber and synthetic rubbers, outlining synthesis, structure, properties, challenges, and potential applications. This is followed by detailed coverage of compounding and formulations, manufacturing methods, and preparation of elastomer-based blends, composites, and nanocomposites. Throughout the book, there is an emphasis on innovations and applications. The next section of the book focuses on properties and characterization, examining elasticity, spectroscopy, barrier properties, and rheological, morphological, mechanical, thermal, and viscoelastic behavior, as well as theoretical modeling and simulation. Finally, there are chapters on life cycle analysis, recycling, and emerging applications.
This is a highly valuable resource for researchers and advanced students in rubber (or elastomer) science, polymer blends, composites, polymer science, and materials science and engineering, as well as engineers, technologists, and scientists in industry working with rubber-based materials for advanced applications.
