ABSTRACT
This work considers the process of modification of the Indian rubber in the form of latex with ozone. Kinetics of the process has been studied. The proposed process proved to make it possible obtaining of a polymer comprised of the terminal carbonyl and carboxyl groups. It was found that an increase of ozonization degree reduced molecular mass of the Indian rubber. Main physical and mechanical properties of the rubber compounds based on the mixture of original and ozonizated rubbers were determined. Some advantages of the rubber compounds on the basis of the ozonized polymer were discussed in this chapter.
