Blending of rubber is an important route to modify properties of individual elastomeric components in order to obtain optimum chemical, physical, and mechanical properties. In this study, a novel modification of styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) is made by employing acrylic rubber (ACM) to obtain blends of outstanding mechanical, dynamic, and oil resistance properties. In order to achieve those properties, we used a unique vulcanizing system that improves the crosslink density between both polymers and enhances the dynamic mechanical properties as well as its resistance to both motor and break oils. Static mechanical measurements, tensile strength, elongation at break, and hardness are improved together with dynamic mechanical properties investigated using dynamic mechanical analyses. We also proposed a mechanism for the improvement of crosslink density and consequently oil resistance properties. This opens new opportunities for using SBR/ACM blends in oil sealing applications that requires rigorous mechanical and dynamic mechanical properties.

Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer

Rubber blends containing nitrile rubber (NBR) and ground ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer waste (EVAW) from the footwear industry have been prepared over a wide range of composition (up to 90 phr of waste component). The ground EVAW had particle size in the range of 100-350 mm and a gel content of 60±5%. The effect of different amounts of EVA waste on the tensile strength, elongation at break, hardness, tear strength and dynamic mechanical properties was studied. EVAW had a good reinforcing effect on the NBR matrix. A combination of optimum tensile properties, resistance to solvent penetration and dynamic mechanical properties, such as storage modulus and loss tangent was achieved by introducing 50 phr of EVAW in the NBR matrix. This composition also presents a more uniform morphology, as indicated by scanning electron microscopy.
