the thermally stimulated discharge (tsdc) current is studied for acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (nbr) loaded with different high abrasion furnace carbon black (haf). tsdc peak appears only for higher haf contents > 60phr (70 and 80phr of haf contents), the tsdc spectra consist of a sharp peak corresponding to a peak temperature tm which is slightly shifted to higher temperature for 70phr ...

In this paper the effect of a novel bifunctional additive [cyclic butylene terephthalate (CBT)] was investigated on the rheological, curing and mechanical properties of natural rubber (NR), styrene butadiene rubber (SBR), oil extended styrene butadiene rubber (oSBR), acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) and ethylene propylene diene rubber (EPDM). Results showed, that CBT acted as an effective l...

Blends of acrylonitrile butadiene rubber/high density polyethylene (NBR/HDPE) compatibilized by Chloroprene rubber (CR) were prepared. A fixed quantity of industrial waste such as marble waste (MW, 40 phr) was also included. The effect of the blend ratio and CR on cure characteristics, mechanical and swelling properties of MW-filled NBR/HDPE blends was investigated. The results showed that the ...

acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (nbr) composites are prepared from waste nylon 66 short fiber using a two-roll mill mixer. the effects of fiber content and bonding agent on the mechanical and morphological properties of the composites are studied. the curing characteristics of the composites have been studied by using cure rheometer. the cure and scorch time of the composites decrease while cure...

nanocomposite vulcunizates based on styrene-butadiene rubber (sbr), organoclay and a conventional sulfur curing system were prepared by melt blending process in an internal mixer. in order to study the effects of the type of interfacial compatibilizer on the properties of sbr and clay nanoparticles,three types of compatibilizers, maleic anhydride grafted ethylene-propylene diene rubber (epdm-g-...

III To my mother and father IV ABSTRACT Biodiesel and hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) are currently viewed by the transportation sector as the most viable alternative fuels to replace petroleum-based fuels. The use of biodiesel has, however, been limited by the deteriorative effect of biodiesel on rubber parts in automobile fuel systems. This work therefore aimed at investigating the degradati...

In this work, the effect of mixing temperature (Tmix) on the mechanical, rheological, and morphological properties of rubber/cyclic butylene terephthalate (CBT) oligomer compounds was studied. Apolar (styrene butadiene rubber, SBR) and polar (acrylonitrile butadiene rubber, NBR) rubbers were modified by CBT (20 phr) for reinforcement and viscosity reduction. The mechanical properties were deter...

In this work the effect of the γ-radiation dose on ageing of carbon black reinforced elastomeric materials was studied. The compounds based on natural rubber/chlorosulfonated rubber blend (NR/CSM) and butadiene acrylonitrile rubber/chlorosulfonated rubber blend (NBR/CSM) (50:50, w/w) with different loadings (0, 20, 40, 50, 60, 80 and 100 phr) of the filler with the average particle size of 40 n...

This theoretical article investigates an industrial emulsion copolymerization of acrylonitrile (A) and butadiene (B), for the production of grades BJLT and AJLT of a nitrile rubber (NBR). The simulated process involves a train of eight continuous stirred-tank reactors operating at 10 ◦C. The product quality is determined by its molecular structure (average copolymer composition, average molecul...
