Novel Developments in the Technology of Synthetic Rubbers

  • Chapter
Synthetic Rubbers: Their Chemistry and Technology

Abstract

This chapter is concerned not so much with different chemical types of synthetic rubber as with novel forms of synthetic rubber which in turn have led to the development of unusual processing technologies as judged by the standards of conventional rubber technology. It is in this latter sense that the adjective ‘novel’ is used. Of course, it has sometimes been the case that novel chemical variations have been necessary in order to produce a rubber which is capable of being processed in a particular way. But these chemical variations are largely secondary to the processing technology by which the rubber is intended to be fabricated into the final product. Indeed, it has often been the case that the chemical variations have been dictated by the processing requirements.
