Answers
vulcanization is brought about by heating rubber with sulphur.
→ Vulcanization ( also spelled as vulcaniaation ) is a process or more specifically a chemical process in which polymers are converted into a form which more durable than their initial form.
→ It is performed by creating crosslinks.
→ If we form cross links between each polymer chain, it also affects the mechanical properties of that particular element over which the vulcanization process is done.
→ It is quite often that we use the term " vulcanized fibre " by which we actually refer to a kind of cellulose that is in fact treated by a zinc chloride ( ) solution so that the cellulose fibres are crosslinked.
→ The vulcanization process in which sulphur is used to increase durability of rubber, is known as sulphur vulcanization( also spelled as sulphur vulcanisation ).
→ Sulphur volcanization is generally defined as the chemical process which involves conversion of the rubber formed naturally into a somewhat more durable matter by heating it with sulphur.
