“…During the deformation process, the movement of molecular chain and the stress transformed is limited. 35 Therefore, the composite modulus consistently increases with increasing particle loading since many interactions between polymer segments and inorganic fillers are produced. It is also concluded that these materials exhibited similar human skin-like behavior, as the elastic modulus (E 0 ) was measured to be 1.13, 1.5, 1.83, and 2.17 MPa for PDMS and 30, 50, and 70 wt % carbonyl iron materials, respectively.…”

Nature-inspired actuators that can be driven by various stimuli are an emerging application in mobile microrobotics and microfluidics. In this study, a soft and multiple-environment-adaptive robotic platform with ferromagnetic particles impregnated in silicon-based polymer is adopted to fabricate microrobots for minimally invasive locomotion and control interaction with their environment. As an intelligent structure of platform, the change of its bending, deformation, and flapping displacement is rapid, reversible, and continuously controllable with sweeping and multicycle magnetic actuation. The bending angle of the soft platform (0.2 mm in thickness and 8.5 mm in length) can be deflected up to almost 90° within 2.7 s. Experiments demonstrated that the flexible platform of human skin-like material in various shapes, that is, flowerlike shapes, can transport a cargo to targeted area in air and a variety of liquids. It indicates excellent magnetic-actuation ability and good controllability. The results may be helpful in developing a magnetic-driven carrying platform, which can be operated like a human finger to manipulate biological objects such as single cells, microbeads, or embryos. Especially, it is likely to be used in harsh chemical and physical circumstances.

“…The blends were compounded using a Haake Polylab OS Rheodrive 16 internal mixer with a Banbury rotor at 0.70 fill factor and with overall 50 g of each blend formulation. The ratio of NR/EPDM, amount of EPDM-g-MAH compatibilizer, and internal mixer machine parameters had been optimized prior to this work and were reported elsewhere [39,42,43]. The melt-blending operation was performed at a mixing temperature of 70°C and rotor speed of 70 rpm for 5 min.…”

“…The first heating endotherms were analyzed to understand the influence of GNPs modification and amount of loading to the heat flow behavior of the produced blends. The glass transition temperature (T g ) was determined from the primary point that intersected the tangent discontinuity in the DSC curve [43].…”

The facile approach of non-covalent surface treatment utilizing poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) polymer was applied to modify graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs). The effects of surface modification and various GNPs-PEI loadings to cure characteristic, mechanical, physical, and morphological properties of natural rubber (NR)/ethylenepropylene-diene-monomer (EPDM) blend nanocomposites were studied and compared to the unfilled NR/EPDM blend and blends filled with unmodified GNPs at similar loadings. We found that the modification of GNPs surface significantly influences the properties of NR/EPDM blends. The addition of GNPs significantly improved the blend's processability, offering approximately a 104.30 % increase in tensile strength obtained with the addition of 5.00 wt% GNPs-PEI. A reduced swelling index of Q f /Q g in parallel with an increase in modified GNPs-PEI content revealed enhancements in terms of rubber-filler interactions between the NR/EPDM matrix and GNPs. These findings were further supported by X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry analysis, and fracture morphology by scanning electron microscope.

Carbon blacks (CBs) have been widely used as reinforcing materials in advanced rubber composites. The mechanical properties of CB-reinforced rubber composites are mostly controlled by the extent of interfacial ad hesion between the CBs and the rubber. Surface treatments are generally performed on CBs to introduce chemical functional groups on its surface. In this study, we review the effects of various surface treatment methods for CBs. In addition, the preparation and properties of CB-reinforced rubber composites are discussed.
