Abstract:
A process for devulcanizing EPDM rubber comprising the step of introducing sulfur-cured EPDM to an extruder, introducing from about 0.5 to about 20 wt % scavenging agent, based upon the total weight of the EPDM and scavenging agent, and mixing and masticating the EPDM at a temperature sufficient to at least partially devulcanize the sulfur-cured EPDM.
