Features: This book is divided into fifteen chapters. The first six chapters systematically discuss rubber and its compounding systems (the structure and properties of various elastomers and their applications, vulcanization, reinforcement and filling, aging protection, plasticization, and the principles and methods of blending). The middle four chapters outline the principles and methods of rubber compound design, while the last five chapters comprehensively elaborate on the principles and implementation methods of five basic processing processes: plasticizing, mixing, calendering, extrusion, and vulcanization. The book combines theory with practice, is easy to understand, and is richly illustrated. It can serve as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in rubber and plastic engineering at universities and colleges, as well as for vocational colleges and advanced training programs. It is also a valuable reference for relevant researchers and engineering professionals.
