In methods for forming thermoplastic vulcanizates, and thermoplastic vulcanizates formed by such methods, a masterbatch comprising one or more additives in a carrier resin comprising propylene- or ethylene-based copolymer is added to the thermoplastic vulcanizate formulation. The resulting thermoplastic vulcanizate may additionally be passed through a 200 mesh or finer screen and thereafter extruded. The thermoplastic vulcanizates may exhibit increased extrusion throughput rates and enhanced surface smoothness.

The phenolic resin composition of the present invention includes a novolac-type phenolic resin, a resorcinol resin, and a curing agent, and is of a solid form. The mixing ratio of the resorcinol resin is preferably more than or equal to 1 part by mass and less than or equal to 100 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the novolac-type phenolic resin. The mixing ratio of the curing agent is preferably more than or equal to 5 parts by mass and less than or equal to 25 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of a total amount of the novolac-type phenolic resin and the resorcinol resin. The phenolic resin cured product is obtained by heat-curing the phenolic resin composition.

The invention relates to systems and techniques for manufacturing articles containing cellulosic material, a coupling agent, and a binder resin, and related processes of making and using the cellulosic articles. In particularly exemplary embodiments, the manufactured articles are door skins, sometimes known as door facings, and doors made from the door skins. The article contains a lipophilic cellulosic material, a coupling agent, and a binder. The coupling agent is believed to increase the hydrophilicity (wetability) of the lipophilic cellulosic material.

Rubber compositions and rubber articles manufactured from such rubber compositions that include the well-known antioxidant poly-2,2,4-trimethyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline (TMQ) having the formula (C.sub.12H.sub.15N).sub.n where n=24 as well as a methylene acceptor/donor system reinforcing resin. Such embodiments include a tire component comprising a rubber composition that is based upon a cross-linkable elastomer composition, the cross-linkable rubber composition comprising, per 100 parts by weight of rubber (phr), a highly unsaturated diene elastomer, reinforcing filler, between 0.5 phr and 10 phr of TMQ and the methylene acceptor/methylene donor.
