Abstract

The photodegradation of various grades of raw rubber is studied using artificial solar energy produced from a 1 kW solar simulator. The rate of chain scission is a function of the purity of the rubber. The presence of chromophores accelerates the chain scission. The rubber can be efficiently degraded under solar source by the incorporation of an effective sensitiser system.
