Abstract During the incorporation stage of mixing carbon black with elastomer, the mixture becomes one solid mass, i.e., compacted. In this process, the elastomer must be deformed to conform with the topology of carbon black. This work attempts to elucidate the mechanism of compaction. In particular, the effects of static pressure and shear on compaction have been examined. A Sieglaff-McKelvey capillary rheometer was used for the higher pressure range and a Rheometrics mechanical spectrometer for the lower pressure range. A mixture of powdered rubber and carbon black was used. With static pressure alone, the compaction was slow and ineffective because the mixture forms a bridge structure. The compacted material was friable. With the application of shear, the bridge structure was easily broken, the compaction was attained immediately, and the compacted material was “fused” together. However, the application of shear was effective only when there was no slip between the rotor surface and the elastomer compound.

The NaCaA-85 zeolite sample which works as an efficient adsorbent for CO2 at RT and in low pressure range was found and its specificity is nicely explained by the model composed of CO2 pinned by two types of Ca2+ ions through far-IR and DFT studies.

Abstract Acetone-based Molecular Tagging Velocimetry (MTV) is demonstrated in high sub-sonic and supersonic (Mach 1.8) nitrogen and air free jets produced by nozzles with exit dimensions of order 1 mm. Measurements are performed in the static pressure range 1–110 torr, with spatial resolution of approximately 10 microns. The statistical uncertainty (2σ) in velocity is found to be of order 6–10 m/sec, approximately independent of flow field pressure. Spectral emission scans indicate that under some circumstances, the CH radical is formed in the flow, which is believed to be the primary light emitting species in air flows.

The diamond anvil cell (DAC) is considered one of the dominant devices to generate ultrahigh static pressure. The development of the DAC technique has enabled researchers to explore rich high-pressure science in the multimegabar pressure range. Here, we investigated the behavior of the DAC up to 400 GPa, which is the accepted pressure limit of a conventional DAC. By using a submicrometer synchrotron X-ray beam, double cuppings of the beveled diamond anvils were observed experimentally. Details of pressure loading, distribution, gasket-thickness variation, and diamond anvil deformation were studied to understand the generation of ultrahigh pressures, which may improve the conventional DAC techniques.

Abstract The powdered rubber method leads to a considerable shortening of mill mixing time and hence to a reduction of the specific energy required. While the transition from granular material to powder (from above 1 mm to below 1 mm particle size) has considerable effect both on mixing time and on specific energy, the effect of size reduction on specific energy for sizes below 1 mm is substantially smaller than expected from the surface area increase, probably, because a large part of the energy is used for carbon black dispersion. No effect of specific surface on specific energy and mixing time was found.

The effect of pressure on the rates of aquation of Cr(NCS)63− and Cr(NH3)2(NCS)4− has been studied over the pressure range 1 to 2043 atm, at 50 ˆC. The activation volumes for these reactions are found to be 16 ± 2 and −2.4 ± 0.8 ml/mol, respectively. The pressure dependence of the activation volumes, (∂ΔV*/∂P)T, are 15 ± 5 and 0 ± 1 ml/katm mol, respectively. These results are consistent with a dissociative interchange (Id) process for the aquation of Cr(NCS)63− and an SN2 front-side process for the aquation of Cr(NH3)2(NCS)4−.

This paper is devoted to an investigation of the effects of surface structure (structure-less or structured) on the description of the adsorption isotherm and the isosteric heat of nitrogen and argon adsorption onto graphitized thermal carbon black. It was found that the surface structure had little effect on the adsorption of either argon or nitrogen at 77 K and 87.3 K. The variation of the monolayer coverage concentration was also investigated as well as the concentrations of higher layers as a function of pressure and temperature. Finally, the commonly used values for the molecular projection area of nitrogen and argon for graphitized thermal carbon black (16.2 Å2 and 13.8 Å2) were revisited. For this material, a value of 15.5 Å2 is recommended for nitrogen at 77 K, while for the case of argon at the same temperature the recommended values of 13.8 Å2 and 12.94 Å2 are suggested for the reduced pressure range (0.1–0.2P/P0) and (0.25–0.35P/P0), respectively. A value of 14 Å2 for argon at 87.3 K is suggested for the BET plot over the reduced pressure range of 0.1–0.2P/P0.

1,3:2,4-bis(3,4-dimethylbenzylidene)sorbitol (DMDBS) is highly effective in nucleation of the α- form of isotactic polypropylene (iPP). However, its role in high-pressure crystallization of iPP, facilitating the formation of the γ- polymorph, has not been explored. The present paper focuses on the influence of DMDBS on nucleation of high-pressure crystallization of iPP. iPP with 0.2–1.0 wt.% of the DMDBS was crystallized under elevated pressure, up to 300 MPa, in various thermal conditions, and then analyzed by PLM, WAXD, SEM, and DSC. During cooling, crystallization temperatures (Tc) were determined. It was found that under high-pressure DMDBS nucleated crystallization of iPP in the orthorhombic γ- form. As a consequence, Tc and the γ- form content increased for the nucleated iPP, while the size of polycrystalline aggregates decreased, although the effects depended on DMDBS content. The significant increase of Tc and the decrease of grain size under high pressure of 200–300 MPa required higher content of DMDBS than the nucleation of the α-form under lower pressure, possibly due to the effect of pressure on crystallization of DMDBS itself, which is a prerequisite for its nucleating activity.

In order to design and fabricate the flexible force sensor , we have researched the piezoresistivity of silicon rubber/ carbon black composites and given the academic calculation formula between pressure and electrical resistivity. The experiments illustrate that the homogenization of carbon black and the elastic modulus of composites can be improved effectively by dispersing nanosize silica filler and using organic solvent . As a result , the piezoresistivity of composites can be improved. Carbon black content of 10% with good pressure-sensitive conductive rubber, heat-sensitive in a certain pressure range is also good.Moreover , the fore - sensitive device fabricated by the composites is free from the limitation of the surface shape of the tested objects which can be widely applied to various squeeze stress measurement on any regular and unregular curve surfaces.
