| abstract |
it is an organic peroxide formulation that includes at least one organic peroxide and at least one cellulose compound. modalities of organic peroxide formulations have significant improvements in surface tack (generally including, but not limited to, adhesion-free surfaces) when curing elastomers in the presence of oxygen. embodiments of the present invention pertain to organic peroxide formulations that can cure solid elastomers in the complete or partial presence of oxygen using, for example, a hot air oven or tunnel, molten salt bath or steam autoclave. Embodiments of the invention also pertain to crosslinkable elastomer compositions, processes for curing elastomers, and products produced by such processes. |
