A process and device continuously prepare a filled rubber masterbatch. The process comprises bringing into contact, in a mixing zone, a first liquid-phase flow and a second liquid-phase flow, the first flow being an elastomer emulsion, the second flow being an aqueous suspension of filler particles, such that one of the two flows emerges inside the other flow and that the two flows are transported at low pressure before they are brought into contact.

Entrance of liquid is sufficiently prevented while electrical conductivity of a carbon material is maintained. A composite 1 includes a substrate 2 and a conductive layer 3 formed on the substrate 2. The substrate 2 includes: a carbon material including a carbon component; and hydrophobic resin.

A method of encapsulating modifiers in a depolymerized product is disclosed. In some embodiments the material undergoing depolymerization is one of polypropylene, polystyrene, and/or polyethylene. In some embodiments, the material is composed, at least partially, of recycled material. In some embodiments, the encapsulated modifiers are added to a formulation such as an asphalt, plastic lumber, plastic wood composite, a plastic formulation, a rubber formulation, an ink formulation, a coating formulation, and/or an adhesive formulation.

An improved EarTip may result from the distribution of PTFE throughout a slow recovery foam. Such an EarTip may have a finer, more uniform cell structure that aids in insertion within a user's ear canal. It may also have a smoother skin, with a lower kinetic coefficient of friction, and may provide improved sound attenuation.

The modified high-viscosity asphalt has raw materials of a base asphalt mixture, an oil slurry, a rubber modifier, modified petroleum resin, an anti-stripping agent, and carbon black powder. The road asphalt patching tape has good high-temperature performance, excellent wear resistance to wheels, a very high friction coefficient and good low-temperature ductility. The road asphalt patching tape can be closely attached to and effectively repair the diseased road surface. In this way, the road asphalt patching tape is compactly connected to the diseased road surface, which can strengthen the diseased road surface, strengthen the overall strength of the cracked area, and prevent diseases, such as turtle shell-shaped cracks, pitted surfaces or the like, from deteriorating into potholes or the like.

A method of recycling rubber includes pre-treating vulcanized ground rubber to prevent the vulcanized ground rubber from encountering significant additional crosslinking during co-vulcanization with fresh rubber compound, and promoting better bonding between the vulcanized ground rubber and the fresh rubber compound. The ground vulcanized rubber can be coated with a layer of non-vulcanized rubber that includes cure inhibitors or other ingredients dispersed within the layer to aid in the coating process and/or co-vulcanization of the vulcanized ground rubber and fresh rubber compound. The vulcanized ground rubber can also be pre-treated with a mixture of at least one chemical curing agent inhibitor and a solvent capable of solubilizing the chemical curing agent inhibitor and dispersing the curing agent inhibitor within the vulcanized ground rubber.

A cementitious composite and cured masonry block made from the cementitious composite. The cementitious composite contains a cement, a non-rubber aggregate, a crumb rubber and at least one of cement kiln dust and limestone powder. The crumb rubber aggregate is extracted from scrap tires after being processed and then mixed in specified percentages with the aggregate, the cement and water, then cured in forms to make the masonry blocks. In the present disclosure sand, which is used in conventional masonry blocks, is at least partially replaced with crumb rubber to produce a sand-free or sand-reduced masonry block that contains crumb rubber. The crumb rubber masonry blocks satisfy the ASTM non-load bearing requirements. The use of crumb rubber decreases the unit weight and increases thermal resistance of the masonry blocks. The use of cement kiln dust or limestone as a partial replacement of cement will lead to decrease in the cost. The use of industrial waste materials, such as crumb rubber, limestone powder and cement kiln dust, will lead to economic and environmental benefits.

The present disclosure provides for articles formed of a filled polymeric resin material. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to polymeric resin materials that include a filler that includes of a mixture of cured rubber granules, foam granules, and/or textile fibers. The filler can be suspended in and/or encapsulated by the polymeric resin material. The polymeric resin material, the filler, or both can include waste or scrap material from manufacturing or from ground post-consumer waste.
