Improving Curing Process Of Thick Rubber Parts Using Variable Thermal Boundary Condition

Mechanical properties of elastomeric parts, such as modulus, strength and resilience, greatly rely on their curing process. As a matter of fact, state of cure (SOC) as a criterion for degree ofcompletion in the chemical process of the curing and its distribution are two determinative factors in the mentioned properties. In this job our target is to propose a suitable boundary condition in order to obtain a homogenous cure and as a result a better set of mechanical properties.
