“…[1,2,4] Therefore, there is an increase rate of interests of application of elastomer-fillers compositions, including; dielectrics, sensors and actuators, [5][6][7][8][9][10] flexible electronics, heat sinks and gaskets, [11][12][13][14] electromagnetic shields, [15] elastomeric quantum dots materials, [16] and many attractive areas. Over the years, water swellable elastomer (WSE) class of polymers have received great attention in academics and industry for several purposes like sealing or expandable materials used in civil constructions for avoiding water leakages in pipes and working joints in concrete, [17][18][19][20] oil and gas drilling fields [19,21,22] and water-responsive and mechanically adaptive sensors [23][24][25][26] etc. As such, a wide range of elastomers have been examined for the water-swellability, some of which include; polychloroprene rubber (CR), polyoligomeric silsoxane (PDMS), acrylic rubbers (AR), natural rubber (NR), ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM), acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), and polybutadiene rubber.…”
