<p>The invention related to a method of manufacturing an elastomeric product, e.g. rubber products,with a low hysteresis. The method comprises at least the steps of providing an elastomeric material composition which comprises an elastomeric material, sulfur and a peroxide and vulcanizing the blend at a selected reaction temperature that is higher than the temperature at which cross-links are formed in the composition, and that is between the temperature at which the half-life time of the peroxide is 1 hour and 50°C above the temperature at which the half-life time of the peroxide is 1 hour. The composition shows a low level of hysteresis in combination with good (tear) strength, in particular at low temperatures.</p> |
