Hot tear resistance of vulcanized rubber / Nor Atiqah Kamarudin

Molding is a process to fabricate the compounded rubber to the desired shape and dimensions of the intended product. Rejects attributed to poor hot tear resistance of vulcanized rubber at high temperature vulcanization are of prime concerned, in particular thin and complicated moulded rubber profile...
