Effects of shear stress and subcritical water on devulcanization of styrene–butadiene rubber based ground tire rubber in a twin‐screw extruder

The devulcanization reaction of styrene–butadiene rubber (SBR) based ground tire rubber (GTR) in GTR/ethylene–propylene–diene monomer rubber (EPDM) blend was investigated through a compound‐induced reaction by increasing screw rotation speed and being in the presence of subcritical water. The effects of temperature, pressure, screw rotation speed, or promoting agents on the gel content, Mooney viscosity, and Fourier transform infrared spectra of the sol of the devulcanized blends (devulcanized ground tire rubber (DGTR)/EPDM) were measured, and the mechanical properties and microstructures of the revulcanized blend ((DGTR/EPDM)/SBR) were characterized. The results show that subcritical water as a swelling agent and reaction medium promotes the devulcanization reaction, increases the selectivity of the crosslink breakage, keeps the extrusion material from oxidative degradation, reduces the gel particle size of the devulcanized blends, and significantly improves the mechanical properties of the revulcanized SBR/(DGTR/EPDM) blends. In subcritical water, the suitable promoting agents (alkylphenol polysulfide 450, hydrogen peroxide H₂O₂, or 450/H₂O₂) accelerate the devulcanization reaction, keep the double bond content, and lead to further decrease of the gel content and Mooney viscosity of the devulcanized blends and further increase of the mechanical properties of the revulcanized SBR/(DGTR/EPDM) blends. Especially the compound promoting agent (450/H₂O₂) improves the selectivity of the crosslink breakage in devulcanization of SBR‐based GTR. When 450/H₂O₂ is added as a compound promoting agent at the best reaction condition in subcritical water (200°C, 1.6 MPa and 1000 rpm), the tensile strength and elongation at break of the revulcanized SBR/(DGTR/EPDM) blends reach to 85.4% and 201% of vulcanized SBR (24.0 MPa, 356%), respectively. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effects of processing parameters on the properties of microwave‐devulcanized ground tire rubber/polyethylene dynamically revulcanized blends

This work aimed to evaluate the effects of processing parameters on properties of dynamically revulcanized blends based on 60 wt % of devulcanized ground tire rubber (GTR) and 40 wt % of high density polyethylene (HDPE). Devulcanization of the GTR was carried out in a system comprised of a conventional microwave oven adapted with a motorized stirring system with speed control. The resulting devulcanized GTR contained 26 wt % soluble in toluene. It was processed with HDPE in a twin screw extruder to produce a dynamically revulcanized blend. Processing parameters such as screw speed and feeding mode were varied. Their effects were evaluated based on tensile, dynamic mechanical, thermal and rheological properties, as well as on morphology. The results show the importance of the processing parameters involved in the production of blends with dynamically revulcanized rubber phase in the extruder, and good match between the residence time of the rubber and its revulcanization kinetics. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Dynamic reaction inside co‐rotating twin screw extruder. II. Waste ground rubber tire powder/polypropylene blends

In this article, dynamic reaction of waste ground rubber tire powder/PP blends with compatibilizers is extended to commercially available waste rubber Viz. Ground rubber tire and PP for the possibility of getting recycled material with good mechanical properties. In the first part of the article it was shown that the compatibility of model material/PP blends has greatly improved. In this article, extensive studies have been carried out to study the effect of compatibilizers, in‐situ compatibilization of immiscible waste ground rubber tire (WGRT) powder/polyolefin blends of various concentrations was investigated by means of extrusion process using a co‐rotating twin screw extruder. It was observed that addition of small amounts of compatibilizers like SEBS‐g‐MA to the blends of WGRT and PP‐g‐MA can result in better mechanical properties than the blends with isotactic PP. The blends of WGRT powder and PP‐g‐MA with compatibilizer have better adhesion than those of isotactic PP blends as revealed by the morphological studies using AFM and SEM. The betterment in properties can be attributed to the presence of functional group, maleic anhydride in PP‐g‐MA. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 2007     

Improved properties of blends of ultrasonically treated unfilled polyurethane rubber

The aim of this investigation is to improve the properties of the polyurethane rubber that has been devulcanized using the coaxial ultrasonic reactor. After devulcanization of the cured rubber under varying gap sizes and amplitudes, blends of the devulcanized and virgin rubber at different ratios are prepared. Rheological and mechanical properties, hardness as well as gel fraction and crosslink density of the vulcanized blends have been investigated. Results show that compared to the vulcanizates of the devulcanized samples, the vulcanizates of the blends show a remarkable improvement in properties, which are sometimes comparable to or even better than the virgin vulcanizate. Blends have also prepared using different proportions of ground samples and virgin rubber, and a comparison of properties between these blends and the blends of the devulcanized rubber has been carried out. The results show that compared to the ground samples, the blends of the devulcanized samples are easier to mix and exhibit enhanced and more uniform properties. Polym. Eng.

Effects of formulation and processing parameters on the morphology of extruded polypropylene‐(waste ground rubber tire powder) foams

This paper presents an experimental study of the foaming behavior of polypropylene (PP)/(waste ground rubber tire powder) (WGRT) blends when using a chemical blowing agent in an extrusion foaming process. The effects of formulations (i.e., WGRT content, blowing agent content, compatibilizer) and the processing parameters (i.e., die temperature, screw speed) on the void fraction, average cell size, cell density, and cell morphology of the PP/WGRT foams were investigated. The blowing agent loading affected the cell structure of the foams and the average cell size, and the void fraction increased with increasing blowing agent loading. Both increasing the screw speed and decreasing the die temperature could establish a high pressure drop in the extruder die, and these were beneficial to the foaming extrusion. J. VINYL ADDIT.
