AbstractStyrene- butadiene rubber (SBR)/ clay nanocomposites were prepared by mixing the SBR latex with aqueous clay dispersion and co-coagulating the mixture. Tapping mode AFM and XRD were applied to characterize the structure of nanocomposites. It was found that fully exfoliated structure could be obtained by this method only when the low loading of layered silicate (< 10 phr) is used. With increasing the clay content, both non-exfoliated (stacked layers) and exfoliated structures can be observed simultaneously in the nanocomposites. The results of mechanical tests on the vulcanized pure SBR and SBR/ clay nanocomposites showed that the nanocomposites presents better mechanical properties than clayfree SBR vulcanizate. Furthermore, initial modulus, tensile strength, tensile strain at break, hardness (shore A) and tear strength increased with increasing the clay content, indicating the nanoreinforcement effect of clay on the mechanical properties of SBR/ clay nanocomposites. Compared to the clay free SBR vulcanizate, the nanocomposite vulcanizates exhibit a lower tanδ peak value, higher storage modulus and higher tanδ value at the rubbery region (0-60 °C) which indicate that the elastic responses of pure SBR towards deformation are strongly influenced by the presence of nanodisperced natural sodium montmorillonite layers especially completely exfoliated silicate layers.

AbstractCarboxylated styrene- butadiene rubber (XSBR)/clay nanocomposites were prepared by mixing the XSBR latex with aqueous clay dispersion and cocoagulating the mixture. TEM and XRD were applied to characterize the structure of nanocomposites. Fully exfoliated structure was observed for the nanocomposites containing equal to or less than 10 phr (weight parts per hundred) clay. With increasing the clay content to 20 phr, both non-exfoliated (stacked layers) and exfoliated structures can be observed simultaneously in the nanocomposites. The results of mechanical tests on the vulcanized clay-free XSBR and XSBR/clay nanocomposites showed that the nanocomposites present better mechanical properties than clay-free XSBR vulcanizate. Furthermore, modulus, tensile strength, tensile strain at break and hardness (shore A) increased with increasing the clay content, indicating the nanoreinforcement effect of clay on the mechanical properties of XSBR/ clay nanocomposites.

The Impact

This paper proposes and presents the chemical modification of linear hydroxyethers (LHE) with different molecular weights (380, 640, and 1830 g/mol) with the addition of three types of rubbers (polysulfide rubber (PSR), polychloroprene rubber (PCR), and styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR)). The main purpose of choosing this type of modification and the materials used was the possibility to use it in industrial settings. The modification process was conducted for a very wide range of modifier additions (rubber) per 100 g LHE. The materials obtained in the study were subjected to strength tests in order to determine the effect of the modification on functional properties. Mechanical properties of the modified materials were improved after the application of the modifier (rubber) to polyhydroxyether (up to certain modifier content). The most favorable changes in the tested materials were registered in the modification of LHE-1830 with PSR. In the case of LHE-380 and LHE-640 modified in cyclohexanol (CH) and chloroform (CF) solutions, an increase in the values of the tested properties was also obtained, but to a lesser extent than for LHE-1830. The largest changes were registered for LHE-1830 with PSR in CH solution: from 12.1 to 15.3 MPa for compressive strength tests, from 0.8 to 1.5 MPa for tensile testing, from 0.8 to 14.7 MPa for shear strength, and from 1% to 6.5% for the maximum elongation. The analysis of the available literature showed that the modification proposed by the authors has not yet been presented in any previous scientific paper.

The improvement of mechanical properties of polymer-based nanocomposites is usually obtained through a strong polymer–silica interaction. Most often, precipitated silica nanoparticles are used as filler. In this work, we study the synergetic effect occurring between dual silica-based fillers in a styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR)/polybutadiene (PBD) rubber matrix. Precipitated Highly Dispersed Silica (HDS) nanoparticles (10 nm) have been associated with spherical Stöber silica nanoparticles (250 nm) and anisotropic nano-Sepiolite. By imaging filler at nano scale through Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy, we have shown that anisotropic fillers align only in presence of a critical amount of HDS. The dynamic mechanical analysis of rubber compounds confirms that this alignment leads to a stiffer nanocomposite when compared to Sepiolite alone. On the contrary, spherical 250 nm nanoparticles inhibit percolation network and reduce the nanocomposite stiffness.
