Phenolic scorch retarders

摘要

Curable and cured elastomer compositions, and methods for the preparation thereof, in which vulcanization is retarded by incorporating the acid salts of certain methyl substituted aminoalkyl phenols into the compositions to be vulcanized. The compositions include an elastomer, a scorch retarding effective amount of a phenolic scorch retarder acid salt, and a cure effective amount of a free radical generating compound.
