Abstract:We report efficacious vibration damping of carbon black reinforced nitrile butadiene rubber‐polyvinyl chloride blend (NVC) vulcanizates in a constrained layer damping (CLD) configuration. The objective is to compare numerical simulations using finite element method (FEM) and the widely used Ross‐Kerwin‐Ungar (RKU) model with the experimental results. NVC blend (50:50 by weight), was compounded with carbon black as reinforcing filler and vulcanized using a sulfur‐based curative system. Significant reinforcement… Show more
