N2  - A small number of epoxide groups were introduced onto purified natural rubber and synthetic cis-1,4-polyisoprene by reacting the rubbers with m-chloroperbenzoic acid. The rubbers were then subjected to the conditions of the accelerated storage hardening test in the presence of an amino acid (glycine). Results showed that epoxide groups made no contribution to storage hardening and re therefore not responsible for storage hardening of natural rubber
