Mechanical properties of nanoparticle chain aggregates (NCA) including tensile strength and Young's modulus were measured using an instrument incorporating an AFM tip under SEM imaging. The NCA were studied individually and as network films. Carbon NCA were made by laser ablation of graphite, and SnO2 NCA were made by oxidation of a tin compound. The films were deformable and showed elastic beh...

effect of partial natural rubber replaced with synthetic rubbers, styrene butadiene and cis butadiene, on failure and strength properties of bias tread nr/br based compound was studied by efficient and conventional sulfur curing systems and mixtures of different carbon black grades. it was observed that failure behavior comprising tear resistance and crack growth in substituted compounds droppe...

Piezoelements used in robotics require large elasticity and extensibility to be installed in an artificial robot skin. However, the piezoelements used until recently are vulnerable to large forces because of the thin solid materials employed. To resolve this issue, we utilized a natural rubber and applied our proposed new method of aiding with magnetic and electric fields as well as filling wit...

Abstract This paper reports the results of effects oleamide addition on hardness, as one mechanical behaviours, styrene butadiene rubber/silica (SBR/silica) composite. The base SBR was compounded with silica, a reinforcing filler, and others compounding chemicals. silica into rubber matrix at 30 phr chemicals were added based semi-efficient formulation. has been done using opened two-roll mills...

Abstract This work shows an innovative application for electric arc furnace (EAF) slag: its use as a filler nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR). Composites with various EAF slag contents were tested. It was found that the polymer matrix significantly reduces leaching of (determined according to standard CEN-EN 12457-2) incorporated in NBR. The processability characteristics determined by rheometric ...

Abstract Natural rubber is a biomaterial with unique physical and chemical features that are indispensable for many industrial applications. It widely accepted the ?-terminal groups of its biopolymer molecules play critical role in exceptional characteristics. Herein, we used molecular dynamics to model recently structurally defined their interaction l -quebrachitol, which second most common co...

The addition of cork to a natural rubber compound and the vulcanization parameters were studied in terms their influence on properties cork–rubber materials. characterization different compounds was carried out included determination mechanical related application composites as vibration isolation pads, such static dynamic behavior under compressive loading. Statistical methods, ANOVA regressio...

in this research work with the aid of tagouchi experimental design and rawing of interaction curves with minitab software, the best rotor speed and dump temperature of mixing for physico-mechanical and rheological properties of the rubber compound with three mixing steps was obtained. moreover by plotting the mean curves in excel worksheet, the dependency of properties on rotor speed, dump temp...
