Abstract
ABSTRACT
Vulcanization or curing is one of the most important processes in rubber technologies. During this process, plastic rubber compounds by parallel and subsequent physical and mainly chemical reactions change into highly elastic products—vulcanizates. The fundamental goal of curing is forming chemical cross-links between rubber macromolecules, which leads to the formation of a three-dimensional network or rubber matrix. A number of curing systems have been introduced in cross-linking of elastomers; each system has its own characteristics and composition; therefore, vulcanizates with different properties also can be prepared. We characterize organic peroxides as curing agents and their decomposition mechanisms and characteristics and bring a detailed view to understanding mechanisms between peroxides and different types of rubber matrices. Then, we focus on the classification and characterization of co-agents used in peroxide cross-linking and explain the mutual interactions and reaction mechanisms between peroxide, co-agents, and rubber matrices in relation to the properties of prepared materials. Finally, the drawbacks and the main features of final cross-linked materials are outlined.

Abstract
ABSTRACT
The influence of the third monomer 5-ethylene-2-norbornene (ENB) and peroxide content on cure behavior and network structure of peroxide-cured EPDM were investigated by moving die rheometer, NMR relaxation, and dynamic mechanical thermal spectroscopy. According to the rubber elasticity theory, the torque measurement results showed the network structure of peroxide-cured EPDM contained chemical cross-links via combination reaction (Ccom), chemical cross-links via addition reaction (Cadd), and the contribution of entanglement density and network defects to the total cross-link density (CEN). The total cross-link density (Ctot) increased linearly with the peroxide content. The increase of ENB concentration was beneficial for the improvement of cross-linking efficiency of peroxide, but it made the diene conversion of EPDM decrease. CEN was dependent on the third monomer content, which also provided the dominant contribution to the Ctot at low peroxide contents. Furthermore, Ccom and Cadd were dependent on peroxide content linearly, and the latter also was governed by the ENB level.

Abstract
Abstract
Mixing of EPDM and a peroxide curative via a solution route and subsequent curing were performed in a downscaled set-up. The resulting vulcanizates were characterized by a down-scaled hardness measurement and by Raman spectroscopy in a high-throughput experimentation compatible approach. The characterization results obtained on these vulcanizates agreed well with those obtained on corresponding vulcanizates prepared via conventional mill mixing. By indentation on vulcanizates cured for various curing times, a rheometer curve could be constructed. The conversion of the EPDM unsaturation and, thus, the extent of the addition reactions was quantified by Raman spectroscopy. Using both the indentation and the Raman data, the cross-link density resulting from combination reactions was estimated.

Abstract
This review focuses on the chromatography research that has been carried out within industry or in close cooperation with industry and that has been reported in the scientific literature between 2006 and mid-2008. Companies in the health care sector, such as pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, are the largest contributors. Industrial research seems to take place in an open environment in cooperation with academia, peer companies, and institutions. Industry appears ready to embrace new technologies as they emerge, but they focus strongly on making chromatography work robustly, reliably, rapidly, and automatically. "Hyphenated" systems that incorporate on-line sample-preparation techniques and mass-spectrometric detection are the rule rather than the exception. Various multidimensional separation methods are finding numerous applications. Strategies aimed at speeding up the development of new chromatographic methods remain the focus of attention. Also, there is a clear trend toward exploring chromatographic methods for parallel processing along with other strategies for high-throughput analysis.
