Thiokol as Plasticizer
Thiokol is a trade name originally associated with a group of synthetic rubbers and polymers known for their excellent chemical resistance, especially to oils, solvents, and fuels. It refers specifically to polysulfide rubber, which was one of the first types of synthetic rubber developed in the 1920s. Thiokol materials are used in various industrial and aerospace applications where chemical and weather resistance are critical. Key Characteristics of Thiokol (Polysulfide Rubber): Chemical Resistance: Thiokol polymers are highly resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including fuels, oils, solvents, hydraulic fluids, and many acids. This makes them ideal for applications in aggressive
