COMPOSITES based on ethylene-propylene-diene rubber (EPDM) were prepared. EPDM loaded with 40 phr fumed silica in the presence of different concentrations of epoxidized soybean oil ranging between 4 and 8 phr. The composites were subjected to various gamma irradiation doses up to 200 kGy.
The physical, mechanical and thermal properties of rubber composition as a function of irradiation dose were investigated. Gamma irradiation led to a significant improvement in the properties of the all compositions. Besides, an improvement in the mechanical properties was attained with the addition of 4 phr of epoxidized soybean oil.
