Performance of irradiated and crosslinked ethylene vinyl acetate/waste tire dust blend

The effect of irradiation on a 90/10 ethylene vinyl acetate/waste tire dust (EVA/WTD) blend was studied in the presence of 4 phr trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) or tripropyleneglycol diacrylate (TPGDA). The blend was irradiated using a 3.0-MeV electron beam machine at 0, 50, 100, 150, and 200...
