NR/NBR blends — compounding for food contact applications

  • Chapter
Blends of Natural Rubber

Abstract

The initial work into preferred formulations for NR/NBR blends produced a series of cure systems suitable for use in blends of NR with NBR containing either 41% or 34% acrylonitrile (Chapter 5). The blends may be further improved by the use of low levels of compatibilizers, either polychloroprene (CR) or a graft copolymer of natural rubber with poly-(methyl methacrylate) (Heveaplus MG30) as described in Chapter 6.
