The compatibility between polychloroprene (CR) and ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber by using nanoclay as a compatibilizer and a typical mixing procedure was followed to get the CR/EPDM blend compounds. At first the clay was treated with stearic acid in a mortar and placed in the oven at 100°C for 30 min. After heating, the mass
Examples include diene rubbers such as styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), styrene-isoprene-butadiene rubber (SIBR), chloroprene rubber (CR), acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), ethylene-propylene-diene rubber (EPDM), butyl rubber (IIR), and halogenated butyl rubber (X-IIR). For example, SBR may be used to ensure reversion resistance and
