Abstract
A particulate rubber composition includes a plurality of rubber particles. At least some of the rubber particles have tensile fractured surfaces. The particulate rubber composition is produced by a method that includes disintegrating a cross-linked rubber product to form the rubber particles using a high-speed jets fluid to impinge the cross-linked rubber product. The high-speed jets fluid has a Reynold's number that ranges from 100,000 to 4,000,000. A product including a polymeric matrix material and the particulate rubber composition is also disclosed.
