Abstract Of the large number of different industrial synthetic rubbers the foremost is butadiene rubber, first produced by the polymerization of butadiene by Lebedev. Nowadays, in order to improve the mechanical properties of the rubber the polymerization is carried out in conjunction with some copolymerizing additive: styrene, acrylonitrile, etc. Styrene rubbers (SKS) and nitrile rubber (SKN) have a number of quite high chemical and mechanical properties and are produced on a full industrial scale. Hydroxyl rubbers, i.e., those where the selected substance for copolymerizing with the butadiene is a hydroxyl-containing monomer, are able to offer a great deal to industry, since the presence of the hydroxyl groups considerably improves their mechanical properties. However, they do not figure among the available industrial grades of synthetic rubber; yet from the data from American scientists they have considerable value. Good results have been given by work effected by Nagibina and others in the Inst. Khim. Nauk SSSR on producing a rubber on the basis of the joint polymerization of butadiene with dimethyl vinyl acetylenyl carbinol under various conditions.

This research aims to study the mechanical properties of natural rubber composites with nitrile butadiene rubber and ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber. Composite fillers consisted of kaolin, and softener using used cooking oil. The study was carried out by the method of mastication, vulcanization, and maturation of the compound into rubber vulcanizates. The vulcanization and mastication process is carried out in the open mill. The maturation of the compound into rubber vulcanizates from the results of mastication and vulcanization was carried out using semi-automatic heat press and press at a temperature of 130 °C ± 2 °C for 17 min. Based on data from testing the mechanical properties of five samples from five formulas, the mechanical properties of composite rubber are affected by the ratio of natural rubber, synthetic rubber, kaolin, and used cooking oil as a softener. The difference in the results of vulcanizates rubber testing of natural rubber composites with synthetic rubber is not only influenced by the ratio of the composite, but also by the degree of cross-linking between the material molecules.

The improvement in impact properties of wood plastic composite from acrylate-styrene-acrylonitrile (ASA) and bagasse was reported in this work. The effect of type and content of impact modifier by using styrene-butadiene-rubber (SBR) and ethylene-acrylic acid (EAA) as impact modifier on morphology and mechanical properties of wood plastic composite were investigated. Wood plastic composites, prepared from ASA and 50 phr of bagasse by varying amount of impact modifier (both SBR and EAA) from 0-40 wt% of ASA were prepared by melt-blending technique. All materials were mixed by using a two-roll-mill, shaped into sheets by a compression molding machine and specimens were cut with a cutting machine. Then, the obtained materials were characterized, including morphology, impact strength and flexural properties. From SEM micrographs showed that wood plastic composites with using SBR as impact modifier showed more compatible with ASA matrix than EAA. This is a consistency results with mechanical properties such as impact properties, which indicated that the impact strength was improved with increasing the amount of SBR from 0-40 wt% of ASA. However, wood plastic composite with EAA showed the reduction of impact strength. So, it could be demonstrated from this study that the most appropriate impact modifier for wood plastic composite from ASA and bagasse was styrene-butadiene-rubber.

The current investigations show the influence of keratin, recovered from the tanning industry, on the thermal and mechanical properties of vulcanizates with synthetic rubber acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber NBR. The addition of waste protein to NBR vulcanizates influences the improvement of resistance at high temperatures and mechanical properties like tensile strength and hardness. The introduction of keratin to the mixes of rubber previously blended with zinc oxide (ZnO) before vulcanization process leads to an increase in the cross-linking density of vulcanizates. The polymer materials received including addition of proteins will undergo biodecomposition in natural conditions. After soil test, vulcanizates with keratin especially keratin with ZnO showed much more changes on the surface area than vulcanizates without protein. In that aerobic environment, microorganisms, bacteria, and fungus digested better polymer materials containing natural additives.

The results of study of the influence of hollow corundum microspheres HCM-S (5–100 µm) and HCM-L (70–180 µm) on the properties of nitrile butadiene rubber BNKS-18 are presented. The dependence of elastomer resistance to abrasion impact and physic and mechanical properties on the dispersion and concentration of hollow corundum microspheres is shown. The process of hollow corundum microspheres exfoliation of the elastomeric matrix, which largely determines the change of physic and mechanical properties, has been studied by specially developed stretching device compatible with an atomic force microscope. The paper describes microspheres exfoliation which is conventionally divided into 3 stages.

Abstract Ternary elastomer nanocomposites based on acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), polybutadiene rubber (BR) and two types of nanoclay (Cloisite 15A and Cloisite 30B) were prepared using a laboratory scale two-roll mill. The effects of nanoclay composition on the cure characteristics, mechanical properties and morphology of NBR/BR (50/50) nanocomposite samples containing 3, 5, 7 and 10 wt% nanoclay were investigated. According to the cure characteristics both types of nanoclay caused a reduction in the scorch time and optimum cure time of the nanocomposite compound. X-ray diffraction patterns of all samples suggested the intercalation of polymer chains into the silicate layers. This was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) micrographs. Dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) was utilized to study the dispersion state of nanoclay within the elastomer blend matrix. The results showed the development of mechanical properties with the establishment of interactions between nanoclay and polymer chains. Antiknock and brake fluid uptake were also reduced with increasing the nanoclay content.

Organoclay nanoparticles (Cloisite® C10A, Cloisite® C15) and their combination with carbon black (N330) were studied as fillers in chloroprene/natural/butadiene rubber blends to prepare nanocomposites. The effect of filler type and load on the physical mechanical properties of nanocomposites was determined and correlated with its structure, compatibility and cure properties using Fourier Transformed Infrared (FT-IR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and rheometric analysis. Physical mechanical properties were improved by organoclays at 5–7 phr. Nanocomposites with organoclays exhibited a remarkable increase up to 46% in abrasion resistance. The improvement in properties was attributed to good organoclay dispersion in the rubber matrix and to the compatibility between them and the chloroprene rubber. Carbon black at a 40 phr load was not the optimal concentration to interact with organoclays. The present study confirmed that organoclays can be a reinforcing filler for high performance applications in rubber nanocomposites.
