Abstract. This paper presents the mechanical characteristics of some nanocomposite materials based on recovered silicone rubber and different calcium carbonate nanopowders. The influence of the powders on the mechanical properties was studied by means of resistance at breakage, elongation at break and hardness.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
