Use of Amine Terminated Liquid Natural Rubber as a Plasticiser in Filled NR andNBR Compounds

Amine Terminated Liquid Natural Rubber (ATNR) was used as a plasticiser in filled NR and NBR compounds replacing oil/DOP. The scorch time and cure time were found to be lowered when ATNR was used as the plasticiser. ATNR was found to improve the mechanical properties like tensile strength, tear strength and modulus of the vulcanizates . The ageing resistance of the vulcanizates containing ATNR was superior compared to the vulcanizates containing oil/DOP.

N-[(E )-Quinoxalin-2-ylmethylidene]-1H-indazol-5-amine

In the title molecule, C16H11N5, the mean planes of the quinoxaline and indazole fragments form a dihedral angle of 10.62 (5). In the crystal, weak intermolecular N—H..........N hydrogen bonds link the molecules into zigzag chains extending in the [001] direction. The crystal packing also exhibits pye interactions [centroid–centroid distances of 3.7080 (2) and 3.8220 (5) A ˚ ], which form stacks of the molecules parallel to the a axis
