A ternary system for delayed curing inverse vulcanisation.
Bowen ZhangSamuel PetcherTom HasellPublished in: Chemical communications (Cambridge, England) (2019)
Completion of inverse vulcanisation reactions leads to a crosslinked insoluble polymer, but insufficient reaction allows phase separation of the sulfur and organic corsslinkers. A ternary co-polymer system allows delayed curing to be used, keeping the pre-polymer stable, homogeneous, and ready to be set into its final form when and where needed, allowing greater opportunities for practical production.
