Reinforcing styrene butadiene rubber with lignin-novolac epoxy resin networks

Environmental epidemiologic investigations in the styrene-butadiene rubber production industry.

A review of the literature and an update that is in progress of a previous retrospective cohort mortality study of the styrene-1,3-butadiene industry are discussed. The follow-up has now been extended from April 1, 1976, through December 31, 1981, for plant B and December 31, 1982, for plant A. The person-years at risk of death have gone from 34,187 to 43,341 in plant A and from 19,742 to 26,31...

Butadiene and Styrene Risks

The control of cell proliferation by gastrin has been investigated in a rat pancreatic tumour cell line, AR4-2J. Exogenous gastrin, 10-12 to 10-8 M, stimulated cell growth of thymidine-synchronised AR4-2J cells cultured over 48 h in serum-free medium. Cell lysates of AR4-2J cells contained an average of 4.5 and 3.5 pg gastrin per 106 cells, when grown in serum-supplemented or serum-free media, ...

The Rheological Behavior of Wheat Starch Particulates Filled Uncured Styrene-Butadiene Rubber

This study treats one important aspect of starch-filled rubber compounds which is their rheological behavior. Starch-based SBR1712 masterbatches resulting from various formulations were prepared using a mini two roll mill and an internal mixer (Plastograph Brabender).The content in starch was varied from 0 to 50 phr. The effect of starch content on the rheological behavior was ev...

Thermal and Electrical Properties of Irradiated Styrene Butadiene Rubber-Metal Composites

The Effect of Styrene-Butadiene-Rubber (SBR) Polymer Modifier on Properties of Bitumen

Abstract—In order to use bitumen in hot mix asphalt, it must have specific characteristics. There are some methods to reach these properties. Using polymer modifiers are one of the methods to modify the bitumen properties. In this paper the effect of StyreneButadiene-Rubber that is one of the bitumen polymer modifiers on rheology properties of bitumen is studied. In this regard, the rheological...
