Traditional rubber products contain rubber and multiple additives. Unfortunately, many of these materials are obtained from fossil fuel sources, resulting in environmental hazards, overuse of dwindling reserves, and reliance on a volatile petroleum market price. The need for the use of more sustainable materials in the rubber industry is clear, and advances are being made towards this goal. This unique book highlights these developments in the science and technology of sustainable materials in the rubber and allied industries and covers both rubber materials and the ingredients necessary to make a product and also legislation and regulations pertaining to these.KEY FEATURESOffers expert perspectives from both industry and academiaAddresses real‑world problems and offers solutionsProvides up‑to‑date literature on sustainable materials in these industriesDiscusses natural and synthetic rubbers and their sustainable monomers and thermoplastic elastomersDetails sustainable fillers, curing agents and activators, antidegradants, resins, process aids, etcDeals with sustainable textiles and steel for reinforcementCovers rubber recycling as well as regulations and legislationThis book is aimed at engineers, scientists, and researchers in materials science, chemistry, and related fields who are seeking to provide a sustainable alternative for this crucial industry.
