Molded composition and article molded therefrom

摘要

A molding composition processable into a vulcanized elastomeric article such as a solid rubber tire, for example, is formed by mixing together previously vulcanized scrap rubber, a vulcanizing agent such as sulfur, and suitable quantities of accelerator and/or activator. The mixture is then vulcanized under heat and pressure. An alternatively preferred embodiment of the instant invention comprises the addition of a small amount of virgin rubber to the composition.
