Abstract
A method of producing a rubber molded article, involving utilizing a compound different from a compound that has been used as a crosslinking agent. The method of producing a rubber molded article includes a crosslinking step of crosslinking a rubber component by decomposing a compound to be used as a crosslinking agent for the rubber component, the compound including a structure represented by the following formula (I), in a rubber composition containing the rubber component and the compound, the rubber composition including a sulfur content of 2.0 wt % or less: α-β-γ . . . (I) (in the formula (I), α represents a monovalent organic group, β represents —N═N—, and γ represents hydrogen or a monovalent organic group).
Claims14
A method of producing a rubber molded article, comprising:
- crosslinking a rubber component by decomposing a compound to be used as a crosslinking agent for the rubber component, the compound reacts with the rubber component to crosslink the rubber component, and has a structure represented by the following formula (I), in a rubber composition containing the rubber component and the compound, the rubber composition having a sulfur content of 0.25 wt % or less,
- wherein the rubber composition is free of any crosslinking agent other than the compound to be used as a crosslinking agent,
- wherein the rubber component comprises nitrile rubber,
- wherein the nitrile rubber comprises a copolymer that consists of acrylonitrile and butadiene, respectively
- wherein the rubber component has 20 wt % to 90 wt % of an unsaturated bond represented by —C═C— in its structure,
- wherein a content of the compound having the structure represented by the formula (I) is 12 parts by weight to 30 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the rubber component, and:
