Using Beta-Particles for Measuring the Homogeneity of Rubber Compound and Studying the Effect of Compression Temperature and Pressure on its Homogeneity and Mechanical Properties
Abstract
Rubber is produced by volcanization which is achieved by different ways one of theses is by compression in molds by which samples under research were produced in jabir bin hayyan com. In this research the effect of compression temperature on the homogeneity of rubber kind (MCG) which is used in protection masks was studied. After the best degree of temperature was investigated to be (175 oC) then the effect of compression pressure on the characteristics of the rubber for two types of samples prepared by this way, by studying their homogeneity and mechanical properties. This study fixed the best pressure at (150 bar). The practical benefit for this study is to decrease the damage of the product and get best product with best mechanical properties and homogeneity.
