Application of Terahertz Spectroscopy to Rubber Products: Evaluation of Vulcanization and Silica Macro Dispersion
2020
Industrial applications of terahertz (THz) technology are becoming more widespread. In particular, novel evaluation methods for essential rubber products are being developed. THz absorbance spectra of various rubber polymers and reagents enable visualization of filler dispersions and vulcanization reactions. Here, improved visualization of the vulcanization reaction in thick rubber samples is discussed. Silica macro-dispersion is also analyzed because it is a general filler in automobile tires and has been difficult to evaluate with conventional techniques.
