The selection of environment-friendly oil for styrene-butadiene rubber(SBR) was introduced.The key issues in application of environment-friendly oil to replace distillate aromatic extracts(DAE) were analyzed,for example,the processing properties and physical properties of the compound.The emulsion polymerized SBR and solution polymerized SBR(SSBR) had a different requirement in oil due to different molecular structure and polarity component.The compatibility between SSBR and environment-friendly oil was better,and most of the environment-friendly oil with low kinematic viscosity could be applied to SSBR.
