Prediction of Torque in Accelerated Sulfur Vulcanization of Radial Tire Tread Compound

Abstract

Abstract: Prediction of the accelerated sulfur vulcanization is still a challenging task. One type of model used for this purpose is the phenomenological model used here. By modifying the equation of the model, it became possible to predict torque values. By fitting the model equation with the experimental data, the parameters of the model were calculated, then the dependence of the parameters on the temperature was obtained, thus the rheumatic diagrams were simulated at different temperatures and a good agreement was observed.
