Abstract
Reground rubber from used tires is mixed with a styrene-butadiene copolymer and polypropylene or polyethylene. The mixture is placed under temperatures and pressures to form a plasticized, moldable material, which is then injected into a mold to form sheet material suitable for street signs and other products. Alternatively, acetal resin is substituted for the polypropylene or polyethylene. Alteratively, a moldable product is formed from 75% reground rubber and 25% styrene-butadiene copolymer, which is then combined with ground polypropylene and virgin rubber, in which the combination is comprised of 25% virgin rubber, by weight. The combination is then partially plasticized under temperature and pressure, and then injected into a mold to form sheet material for street signs and other products.
