What is the process of improving the quality of rubber by heating it with sulphur called?

1 Answer

Answer :

Vulcanization is the process whereby sulphur is heated with rubber with an activator  at the temperature of between 140 degrees and 160 degrees celscius.  The process is used to enhance elasticity, hardness,  tensile and weather  resistance.
