No significant difference was observed between the viscosities of solutions made from milled rubber stored for varying periods. Some crystallization of the milled rubber had occurred, but this did not affect the solution viscosity. The plasticity measurements on the samples cooled with solid carbon dioxide confirm this hardening, but it is apparently an effect unconnected with change in molecular weight.Abstract
