vulkanointimenetelmät
Vulkanointimenetelmät refers to processes used to vulcanize rubber. Vulcanization is a chemical process that alters the physical properties of rubber by forming cross-links between individual polymer chains. This process typically involves heating rubber with sulfur or other curatives, which results in a material that is more durable, elastic, and resistant to temperature changes and solvents.
The most common vulcanization method is sulfur vulcanization, often referred to as the Goodyear process, named
Another method is peroxide vulcanization, which uses organic peroxides as the curing agent. This method is
Mooney scorch is a related concept, referring to the premature vulcanization of rubber during processing stages
Other specialized vulcanization methods exist, such as radiation vulcanization using electron beams or gamma rays, and
