Standard Classification for Rubber Compounding Materials—Recycled Vulcanizate Rubber

Importancia y uso:

4.1 Recycled vulcanizate particulate rubber is important in rubber compounding. It allows the rubber compounder to add a certain percentage of rubber filler back into its parent or similar compounds or to use the material as substitute or stand alone compound. Its use may lower compound costs or improve performance characteristics, or both.

4.2 Many types of recycled vulcanizate particulate rubber are available, with the number of types of vulcanizate particulate rubber limited only by the number of parent compounds.

4.3 Recycled vulcanizate particulate rubber is used as feedstock for thermal decomposition, devulcanization, recovered carbon black, tire-derived aggregate, synthetic turf infill, asphalt-rubber, molded rubber products, tire-derived fuel, and other tire and non-tire derived products and end uses.

4.4 Use of recycled rubber has a positive environmental impact.
