Notes:
3,5-Di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl thioglycollate (DBHBT) has been reacted with Nigerian Natural rubber latex at 65 ± 1°C using 4,4-azobiscyanovaleric (AZBN) acid-ferrous sulfate redox system to obtain a binding efficiency of 13%. The bound DBHBT was investigated as a UV stabilizer in unprocessed and unvulcanized rubber using spectroscopic method. With respect to the C—O index, the masterbatch diluted to 56% gave the optimum activity and higher concentrations showed significant pro-oxidant activity. The C—C bonds in particular, showed greater stability which is a function of DBHBT concentration. The methylenic and the allylic hydrogen atoms, the most susceptible, and probably the sites of the primary attack, were not protected by DBHBT.
