Figure 6.1 shows <strong>the</strong> cure graph <strong>of</strong> styrene butadiene compounds.<br />
Cure time <strong>of</strong> gum <strong>and</strong> filled SBR compounds with ZnO(p), ZnO(s) <strong>and</strong><br />
ZnO(c) are given <strong>in</strong> Table 6.3.<br />

Compared to <strong>the</strong> cure characteristics <strong>of</strong> gum <strong>and</strong> filled compounds <strong>of</strong><br />
2phr ZnO(c), <strong>the</strong> cure properties <strong>of</strong> compounds with 5phr ZnO(c) are<br />
superior. Similarly, compounds with 2phr ZnO(p) <strong>and</strong> 2phr ZnO(s) are<br />
superior compared to compounds with 1phr ZnO(p) <strong>and</strong> 1phr ZnO(s). The<br />
compounds with low dosage (2phr) <strong>of</strong> ZnO(p) <strong>and</strong> ZnO(s) showed similar<br />
cure characteristics as that with high dosage (5phr) <strong>of</strong> c<strong>on</strong>venti<strong>on</strong>al ZnO(c).<br />
