Abstract
Ozonation of rubber crumbs, accompanied by the accumulation of oxygen in the inactive form, causes changes in the group composition of the products of thermal dissolution: the fraction of tarry matter increases, while the yield of gases decreases substantially. The amount of ozone-modified organic matter of rubber is estimated on the basis of the results of non-isothermal dissolution; the effective activation energy of the process is calculated.
