Effect of Fiber Reinforcement on Thermal Stability and Swelling Behavior of Cr/NBR Blends

Abstract: The effect of type, length, and denier of fibers on the thermal stability and swelling behavior of chloroprene/ butadiene-acrylonitrile rubbers (CR/ NBR) composites was investigated. The results reveal that Nylon 6 fibers improved mechanical properties, thermal stability, and swelling resistance in toluene of 50/50 CR/ NBR blends. Of all fiber types investigated, the viscose fiber CR/ NBR composite has the best swelling resistance in motor oil, whereas the polyester (PET) fiber composite has the best swelling … Show more

“…The fiber loading at which the composite strength is minimum is referred to as minimum loading, and the fiber loading at which the composite strength is equal to the matrix value is referred to as critical loading. 11 The minimum and critical fiber loading are function of fiber type, orientation, and adhesion between the rubber matrix, and so forth. With low fiber content, strength of composites ( c ) was dominated by the rubber and reinforcing fibers that acted as material defects due to significant differences in their moduli.…”

“…The anomaly in tensile strength for 2 and 4 phr was observed in case of SBR filled with fibers . The authors explain these phenomena as at low filler concentration, the filler acts as defects due to the difference in moduli, as a result the tensile strength decreases up to a critical concentration is reached.…”

“…However, NBR exhibits a poor tensile strength and low resistance without vulcanization and reinforcing fillers. Consequently, fillers, such as polymers, metals, and ceramics, are often used to improve the mechanical properties of NBR [1][2][3][4][5]. For example, carbon blacks are excellent reinforcers due to their strong interaction with NBR but these materials have limitations associated with the decreased ability to process the rubber composition when high volume loadings are used.…”
