Electron Beam Irradiation: A Method for Degradation of Composites Based on Natural Rubber and Plasticized Starch

Polymeric composites based on natural rubber (NR) and plasticized starch (PS) obtained by peroxide cross-linking have been subjected to electron beam irradiation in order to investigate their degradation. The amount of PS ranged from 10 to 50 phr and the irradiation dose from 150 to 450 kGy. Irradia...
