Summary:

This is an excellent overview of a complex subject. Rubber curing systems vary both with the polymer type and the property requirements of a particular application. This review addresses these issues in detail, providing typical formulations and cure types for a number of specific uses. The crosslinking of polymer molecules, also known as curing, is widely used to improve the physical properties of elastomeric materials. Sulfur was the first curing agent for natural rubber, it was used by Charles Goodyear in the 1840's. Since that time many new rubber types have been developed and many addition
