Effect Of Organic Solvent On The Entrapment Of 25 Mole Percent Epoxidized Natural Rubber In Preformed Cyclomatrix Poly(1,3-Dioxybenzene) Cyclotriphosphazenes

Blending of 25 mole percent epoxidized natural rubber (ENR-25) with preformed cyclomatrix poly(1,3-dioxybenzene)cyclotriphosphazene (P5) was carried out in toluene, methylene chloride, tetrahydrofuran, cyclohexane and 1,4-dioxane. Entrapment studies with the aid of Differential Scanning Calorimet...
