Abstract In the fundamental study of the influence of reinforcing pigments, particularly carbon black on rubber, one of the great experimental difficulties is to establish the stress-strain properties of that fraction of the rubber stock which is between the pigment particles, and whose deformation, influenced by the presence of the pigment, is the quantity desired. This paper shows that it is not justifiable to assume that the rubber between pigment particles is equivalent in properties to the original gum stock without pigment, because the addition of pigment induces fractionation of the rubber in such a manner as to concentrate preferentially one molecular configuration around the pigment particle, and hence leave the rubber richer in some other configuration in the spaces between pigment particles.

Abstract The heats of immersion of U-1 channel and SAF, SPF, HAF-HS, and HAF furnace blacks have been measured at 25° C in three isoprenoid olefins and four liquid elastomers of the polybutadiene, polyisoprene, and SBR types. An extensive microcalorimeter redesign was necessary because of the high viscosity of these latter fluids. The immersion heats observed with the liquid elastomers were similar to n-decane immersion heats and there was little evidence for specific interactions between these liquids and any of the blacks. The possibility that the very high structure SPF black gives slightly enhanced immersion heats should be further investigated. Since only integral immersion heats could be measured with the non-volatile liquid elastomers, the possibility is not ruled out that specific, relatively high-energy interactions may occur between the adsorbate and a very small fraction of the black surface. The similarities between the immersion heats with n-decane and the liquid elastomers indicate that almost all of the carbon black surface is accessible to the polymer segments. It appears that the rate of heat evolution may be considered a measure of the rate of attainment of intimate molecular contact between the liquid and carbon substrate. The enhancement in heat of wetting with increasing chain length over the C6 to C16 n-alkane series reported by others with a highly uniform, graphitized black was not observed with HAF. Isosteric heats of adsorption of n-butane and butene-1 at low surface coverages on several carbon blacks were calculated from adsorption isotherms obtained with a precision microgravimetric system. The isosteric heats as a function of coverage curves were typical of those expected for heterogeneous surfaces and reflected the presence of high energy physical adsorption sites at low coverages (θ<0.1).

Calorimetric heats have been determined at −183 °C. for the adsorption of krypton on a highly graphitized sample of carbon black. This adsorption system is of particular interest because of the extreme step-wise nature of the isotherm. Both the heat-coverage curve and the isotherm appear to be indicative of a high degree of homogeneity of the adsorbing surface.

Adsorption properties of carbon black before and after modification to polyhalogenohydrocarbons, including polyorganochlorine pesticides, have been investigated. It has been shown that graphitised thermal carbon blacks and carbochroms possess high adsorption capacity relative to the above compounds and can be used as supporting adsorbents to analyse these airborne chemicals. Modification raises the selectivity of adsorbents to the compounds being investigated and lowers retention volumes and heats of adsorption, which makes it possible to carry out thermal desorption of the accumulated species at lower temperatures.
