Dear Peter,

I compared your equation with the Kahn calulator and the rubber bible
(Handbook of chemistry and Physics). Your equation seems to be 
somewhat off the other references. But this does not
make a big difference. (see attachment).

There is not pressure dependence in the Kahn calculator with is
obviously wrong.

Peter
