  • What are rubber antioxidants?
  • Rubber antioxidants are defined as substances that could delay the aging of polymer compounds and prolong the service life of rubber products by inhibiting oxidation, heat, or light radiation . To date, the annual global consumption of rubber antioxidants is over 700,000 tons, accounting for about 40% of the total amount of rubber additives.
  • What causes oxidative aging of rubber?
  • Various external factors, including oxidative agents (such as oxygen), heavy metals, UV rays, ozone, mechanical stress, heat, and aggressive chemicals, etc., could accelerate rubber aging. This review mainly focused on thermo-oxidative aging because it is the most common aging type for rubbers.
  • Do antioxidants and their TPS increase environmental risk awareness of rubber products?
  • To our knowledge, this is the first review on antioxidants and their TPs in the environment, which may elevate the environmental risk awareness of rubber products and their TPs in the near future.
  • What are the future trends of rubber antioxidants?
  • The perspectives on the future trends of rubber antioxidants have been presented. Elastomers, especially diene-rubbers containing unsaturated double carbon bonds in the main chains, are vulnerable to thermal/oxygen aging, which would make the elastomers less elastic and result in earlier failure of the elastomer products.
