Mixing efficiency in co-rotating batch mixer for preparation of NR/EPDM blends

An in-house developed co-rotating batch mixer was used to prepare the blends of natural rubber (NR) and ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM) in the present work. Phase morphology and magnitude of dispersive mixing efficiency offered by the in-house developed co-rotating batch mixer and a conve...
