Abstract The implications of the PRI test are examined, in order to demonstrate how the values may be interpreted by the rubber goods manufacturer. It is shown that consistency of PRI is desirable, to enable product uniformity through control of processing, in particular high temperature mastication. It is demonstrated that PRI cannot be used to assess the quality of natural rubber, in terms of dynamic properties and vulcanizate aging.
