Abstract The environmental impact of rubber waste can be reduced by extending the lifetime products. It achieved developing graphene/rubber nanocomposites with good abrasion resistance. In this paper, we investigated how mixing technologies influence mechanical properties rubber. We added various amounts (0, 1, 5 and 10 phr) graphite graphene to mixtures using a two-roll mill, an internal mixer...

N-nitrosodi-n-propylamine is not an industrially or commercially important chemical. It is produced in small, laboratory-scale quantities for research purposes. It is also produced inadvertently during certain manufacturing processes, occurring as an impurity in some dinitroaniline pesticides and during manufacture of some extruded rubber products. Nitrosodi­ n-propylamine could also be present...

This study compares the use of recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and crumb rubber (CR) when they are functionalized with waste vegetable oil used as modifiers in bitumen. Granules same size were for both modifiers, treated to enhance their compatibility The efficacy treatment was evaluated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Chemical analysis showed appearance intense peaks a...

As a means to decrease the amount of waste tires and to re-use tire rubber for new tires, devulcanization of ground passenger car tires is a promising process. Being an established process for NR and EPDM, earlier work has shown that for ground passenger car tire rubber with a relatively high amount of SBR, a devulcanization process can be formulated, as well. This was proven for a laboratory-s...

Removal of turbidity, phytoplankton, and zooplankton from ballast water with waste-tire-made crumb rubber filtration was evaluated in this study. The influences of various design, operational, and water quality parameters (filter depth, media size, filtration rate, temperature, turbidity, running time, etc.) on filtration performance were investigated. Statistical approaches were used to develo...

This article describes an experimental study aimed at investigating the potential use of recycled rubber granulate from waste tires fractions 0/1 and 1/3 mm in cement composites as a 100% replacement for natural aggregates. The development production new building materials represents important aspect sustainability protection environment. is focused on sound-absorbing thermal-insulating propert...
