Comparison of the Dielectric Thermal Properties and Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Properties of Natural Rubber-Based Composites Comprising Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes and Graphene Nanoplatelets

Nanocarbon Reinforced Rubber Nanocomposites: Detailed Insights about Mechanical, Dynamical Mechanical Properties, Payne, and Mullin Effects

“…Graphene has also been used as reinforcing filler in natural rubber as evident from its mechanical properties [ 5 , 33 , 34 , 48 , 49 ]. Galimberti et al [ 36 ] recorded nominal stress-nominal strain curves on nanocomposites of synthetic poly(1,4-cis-isoprene) (IR) filled with organoclay, CB, MWCNT, and graphene.…”

“…Bhattacharya et al [ 65 ] observed superior dynamic mechanical properties of NR/CNF nanocomposites when compared with those to either NR/clay or NR/CNF nanocomposites or the NR/black control microcomposite. Natural rubber/graphene nanocomposites that were prepared by direct mechanical mixing showed improved dynamic properties [ 48 ]. The elastic modulus of NR at room temperature increases and the maximum loss tangent and the corresponding glass transition temperature of composites decrease with increasing content of MWCNT [ 160 , 161 ].…”

“…In view of this, these carbon containing fillers has been receiving considerable amount of attention as filers in rubber nanocomposites due to their superior properties. When considering all these aspects, the present article reviews mechanical properties, dynamical mechanical properties, Payne, and Mullin effects of NR, SBR, NBR, EPDM, and EVA rubbers filled with graphitic fillers anticipating their superior applications in multifaceted fields [ 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 …”
