Virgin NBR and recycled NBR particles, which were pulverized from NBR scraps by high temperature shear-crushing technique, were blended with different mixing ratio. The effects of the recycled NBR content on the cure characteristics and physical properties of these blends were investigated and resistance properties of these blends to heat and various fluids were also studied. The study of cure characteristics showed that the viscosity increased but the scorch time decreased. The physical properties of rubber blends were improved with the addition of the recycled NBR for heat resistance and various fluid tests.

Virgin fluororubber(FKM) that is one of the highly-functionalized and expensive special rubber, and recycled FKM that is crushed by high temperature shear-crushing technique from recycled FKM were blended with the various mixing ratio to rubber blends. The cure characteristics and physical properties of these blended rubber compounds were investigated with various contents of recycled FKM and physical properties fur heat and fuels were also measured. Recycled FKM which is prepared by high temperature shear-crushing technique were blended to virgin FKM with the range of $0{\sim}50$ phr. The physical properties indicated that the rubber blend of recycled FKM with 30 phr turned out to be the best compound showing good dispersibility, heat resistance and fuel resistance and inexpensive in price.
