The invention provides
sulfur modified
neoprene rubber, which is characterized in that the
neoprene rubber is the multipolymer of
chloroprene, 2, 3-dichloroprene and sulphur. The multipolymer is made up of the constitutional repeating units; moreover, the multipolymer has a weight average
molar mass between 80000 and 150000, a number average molecular weight between 35000 and 70000 and a
brittleness temperature between 38 DEG C below zero and 42 DEG C below zero; the multipolymer is made by polymerizing 100 weight portions of
chloroprene, 2 to 30 weight portions of 2, 3- dichloroprene and 0.5 to 0.8 weight portion of
sulfur by latex, wherein, the polyreaction temperature is between 20 and 45 DEG C, in the formula, n is an integer between 80 and 100, m is an integer between 2 and 10 and x is an integer between 2 and 6. The
sulfur modified
neoprene rubber embodies good
machining performance in the aspects such as the tensile-strength, the
crystallization velocity and the stability of the
Mooney viscosity; in addition, the sulfur modified neoprene rubber has good rebound resilience, peeling strength, anti-tensile and chap property, antigraining performance and forming binding property, therefore, the dynamic property of the product is superior to that of the neoprene rubber of the prior art. The invention also provides a method for making the neoprene rubber and an application to the manufacture of a car
transmission belt and a power conveyer belt.
