The waste tire rubber that had been grounded in room temperature was devulcanized by using the microwave method. As the devulcanizing agent, diphenyldisulfide (DPDS), the efficiency of which in the breaking off of sulfur bonds (S-S) had been proven in various studies, was employed. By maintaining the microwave power at a fixed value, the effects of time and the DPDS amount on the process were investigated. The untreated waste tire rubber powder was characterized physically and thermally. Composite materials were prepared with 20 phr untreated waste tire rubber powder and devulcanized rubber (DVR) with the styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) matrix. These composites were compared with a control sample that was prepared from virgin SBR. The sol content (soluble part) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometer (FTIR) analyses of the devulcanized samples have been examined to define the efficiency of devulcanization. The mechanical properties of the SBR composites were researched. In this study, it was found that using devulcanized rubber produced much better properties than using waste tire rubber powder, thereby showing the significant benefits of microwave devulcanization. At the DPDS content of 1 g, the elongation at break of the DVR 4 min/SBR composites increased to 578% from 481% for the untreated waste tire rubber powder and SBR composites, the elongation at break was enhanced by 20% by the devulcanization of waste tire rubber powder.

Oda sıcaklığında öğütülen atık taşıt lastiği tozu mikrodalga yöntemiyle devulkanize edilmiştir. İşlemde devulkanizasyon ajanı olarak, kükürt bağlarının (S-S) koparılmasında etkinliği çeşitli çalışmalarda ortaya konulmuş olan, DPDS (difenildisülfür) kullanılmıştır. Mikrodalga gücü sabit tutularak, zamanın ve DPDS miktarının prosese etkileri incelenmiştir. İşlem görmemiş atık lastik tozu fiziksel ve termal olarak karakterize edilmiştir. 20 phr oranında atık lastik tozu ve aynı oranda devulkanize kauçuk (DVR) stiren bütadien kauçuğa (SBR 1723 ve SBR 1502) katılarak kompozit malzemeler hazırlanmıştır. Bu kompozitler orijinal SBR’den hazırlanan kontrol numunesiyle karşılaştırılmıştır. Devulkanizasyonun etkinliğini ortaya koyabilmek için devulkanize numunelerin çözünme oranları (sol content) belirlenmiş ve Fourier Transform Infrared Spektrofotometre (FTIR) analizi yapılmıştır. Elde edilen kompozit malzemelerin mekanik özellikleri incelenmiştir. Çalışmada, DVR katılan malzemelerde atık lastik tozu katılan malzemelere göre daha iyi özellikler elde edilmiştir, sonuçlar mikrodalga devulkanizasyonunun önemli avantajlar sağladığını göstermiştir. Kopma uzaması değeri, işlem görmemiş atık lastik tozu katılan kompozit malzemede %481 iken, 1 g DPDS katılarak 4 dk. süreyle devulkanize edilen kauçuğun katıldığı DVR/SBR kompozitte %578 olarak elde edilmiştir, böylece kopma uzaması değeri atık lastik tozunun devulkanizasyonuyla %20 oranında artmıştır.
