The Role of Antioxidants in Extending the Life and Durability of Rubber Products

Rubber products are not only subject to mechanical pressure and abrasion over their service life. Oxygen, ozone, heat, light, and mechanical stress gradually alter the structure of rubber, reducing flexibility, increasing hardness, causing cracking, and degrading mechanical properties. This process, known as rubber aging, is one of the key factors limiting the service life of […]
