Effect of carbon‐based nanoparticles on the cure characteristics and network structure of styrene–butadiene rubber vulcanizate

Abstract: The network structure of styrene–butadiene rubber (SBR) in the presence of carbon black (CB) with two different structures and multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was investigated. Swelling behaviour, tensile properties at various strain rates and cure kinetics were characterized. Experimental data were analysed using the Flory–Rehner model as well as the tube model theory. It is found that the network structure of CB‐filled SBR follows a three‐phase composite model including rigid particles, semi‐rigid bou… Show more

“…Accordingly, it is clearly evidenced that the incorporation of the reinforcements increases always the viscosity of the rubber. This behavior has already been observed frequently by others in many rubber‐filler systems, which is often attributed to the strong interaction at the rubber–particle interfaces . Crosslink density values from Flory‐Rehner model corresponds with the variation of torque difference.…”

“…CB as a conventional reinforcement used in rubber goods exhibits a profound effect on the kinetics of vulcanization and on network structure. This behavior has been ascribed to the unique surface chemistry and surface topology of the CB resulting in marked physical and chemical interactions between CB surfaces and macromolecular chains . The properties of the composites with both CNTs and CB were improved effectively by the formation grape‐cluster‐like reinforcing structure .…”

“…It can be seen in Fig. that σ M of all samples decreases sharply at low deformations, which is attributed to the Payne effect . At higher elongations (lower f ( λ ′)), σ M has an upturn increasing the behavior for all curves (inset of Fig.…”

“…The pristine CSDPF/NR compound has the highest value of M L , while AMI‐CSDPF/NR compound has the lowest. As M L reflects the compound viscosity, the results suggest that the modifier AMI has a much greater effect on the decrease of viscosity of compound. In the case of Δ S , the AMI‐CSDPF/NR compound shows relatively the higher value of Δ S , which indicates the greater crosslinked degree .…”
