Cure Date – Curing is the heat-induced process whereby the long chains of the rubber molecules become cross-linked by a vulcanizing agent to form three-dimensional elastic structures. The Cure Date is the date that the rubber is fully molded in this process. Shelf(Storage) Life – the maximum period of time,...
