Abstract

Methods for treating rubber-containing particles to produce materials suitable for blending with thermoplastic or thermoset polymers are disclosed. The rubber-containing particles are mixed with a fatty acid-containing material in a friction mixer to produce a rubber-containing particulate mixture. The rubber-containing particles may comprise virgin or recycled particulate rubber such as from used tires.
