This replacement for the last Morton book provides up-to-date information on the rubber industry as it exists today. This hardback covers current information on available elastomers, compounding materials and methods used to produce rubber products. Not only is this the primary text for the basic course, it is a valuable resource for in-house course offerings.

This book provides basic information on rubber science and technology. It starts with brief general discussions on elastomers and basic characteristics followed by chapters on compounding, processing, curing and test methods and their significance to rubber products. There are also chapters on general purpose elastomers (NR, SBR, polybutadiene, EPDM, and butyl rubber), solvent resistance elastomers (NBR, HNBR, neoprene, hypalon, and PVC), temperature resistant elastomers (silicone rubber, polyacrylates, and FKM).

This book is intended for use by marketing, production, and technical personnel in the rubber industry. This is the textbook used for the Rubber Division's Basic Rubber Technology online course.
