Direct Adhesion between Polymer Plated Metals and Rubbers during Vulcanization, Part 4. Direct Adhesion between Polymer Plated Steel and Peroxide Crosslinked EPDM during Vulcanization

Possibilities of Parameter Adjustment during Vulcanization

ABSTRACT At final parameters and characteristics of tyre can influence several basic elements – tyre composition, sort of used fillers, caoutchouc, reinforcing materials, their construction, choice of curing process, process of stabilization, storage conditions and so on. Nowadays by motorizing development are producers specialized for tire properties parameterize. This fact is necessary to sat...

Multifunctional Nanotube Polymer Nanocomposites for Aerospace Applications: Adhesion between Swcnt and Polymer Matrix

Multifunctional structural materials can enable a novel design space for advanced aerospace structures. A promising route to multifunctionality is the use of nanotubes possessing the desired combination of properties to enhance the characteristics of structural polymers. Recent nanotube-polymer nanocomposite studies have revealed that these materials have the potential to provide structural int...

Polymer Gel Rheology and Adhesion

Polymer gels are found in many applications ranging from foods (Ross-Murphy, 1995; Tunick, 2010) and drug delivery (Andrews & Jones, 2006) to adhesives (Creton, 2003) and consumer products (Solomon & Spicer, 2010). By manipulating the gel’s microstructure, a wide variety of physical properties can be achieved ranging from hard rubbery plastics to soft hydrogels. Silicone-based polymer gels in p...

Adhesion of polymer vesicles.

The adhesion and bending modulus of polybutadiene-poly(ethylene oxide) block copolymer vesicles made from a bidisperse mixture of polymers is measured using micropipette aspiration. The adhesion energy between biotinylated vesicles and avidin beads is modeled by incorporating the extension of the adhesive ligands above the surface brush of the vesicle according to the blob model of bidisperse p...
