Most of the early studies using peroxycarbamates concerned
their synthesis, decomposition and use as initiators in vinyl or
diene polymerisation. The only attempt to use one as a crosslinking
agent was reported in 1960 for a plastic. The author's
research work is an attempt to prepare new bisperoxycarbamates and to
evaluate them as crosslinking agents in natural rubber (DPNR) and
polyisoprene rubber (Cariflex IR 305). [Continues.]
