Abstract Active channel black combines chemically with sulfur when heated with sulfur solutions. The amount of sulfur combined increases after hydrogenation of the carbon black. The dimensions of the carbon black aggregates increase as the result of the reaction with sulfur. Hydrogenation of channel black increases the content of insoluble rubber in the carbon-rubber gel formed during milling of a rubber-carbon black mixture. Hydrogenation of channel black increases the content of bound sulfur, the modulus, and tensile strength, in comparison with vulcanizates containing the original unhydrogenated channel black. These facts suggest that active carbon black enters the composition of the vulcanizate structure, and this is a factor in rubber reinforcement.

The catalytic effects of hydrophilic granulated active carbon black Chezacarb have been tested in the oxidation of dilute (5 000 ppm) aqueous solutions of phenol. The research was focused on combined utilization of sorption and chemical (oxygen functional groups) properties of carbon black which support formation of free radicals in oxidation and on the catalytic effects of metals (Fe, Ni and V) present in the sorbent mentioned. The oxidation was carried out in a stainless steel autoclave of 1.25 l capacity. The reaction temperatures and the total pressures varied in the intervals of 120-160 °C and 3-5 MPa, respectively. The reaction mixture was analyzed by means of HPLC with UV detection (254 nm). The experimental data were evaluated by means of the ASPEN PLUS 9.2 program. The model of laboratory autoclave involved the reaction kinetics as well as the phase equilibria and dissolution of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the reaction mixture. Although the active carbon black shows a lower catalytic activity than the usual copper catalyst in the wet oxidation, it has the advantage of avoiding the undesirable releases of heavy metals in waste waters, which escapes accompany the application of copper catalysts.

Scaling of the real and the imaginary part of dynamic moduli with frequency, for fully cured elastomer materials as gum and active carbon black filled butyl rubbers, is considered experimentally and theoretically. For gum rubber in different ranges of frequency complete agreement with G''-scaling predicted by the Rouse theory is obtained. Obtained slopes for all G' and G'' of filled rubber are much lower.

Abstract Carbon blacks can be grouped into different classes according to the way in which their fineness of division relates to different properties in rubber. Within any one class the principal properties vary in a regular manner with particle size. The normal class consists of the furnace carbons, Kosmos (Dixie)-40, Statex, the rubber-grade impingement carbons, and possibly, the color-grade impingement carbons. The subnormal classes consist of thermal carbons and acetylene and lamp blacks. Irrespective of the above classification, the properties which depend more on fineness of division than on other factors are rebound resilience, abrasion resistance, tensile strength and tear resistance. The lower limit of particle diameter for best tensile strength and tear resistance appears to be higher than that for abrasion resistance. B.S.I, hardness and electrical conductivity are properties which depend at least as much on other factors as on particle size. Stiffness (modulus) depends more on other factors than on particle size. Factors modifying the effects of particle size (or specific surface) include the presence of carbon-carbon structures and a reduction in strength of bond in rubber-carbon structures. Carbon black is thought to exist in rubber in four states: agglomerated, flocculated, dispersed, and bonded to the rubber molecules (the reënforcing fraction). Abrasion resistance is regarded as providing the only reliable measure of reënforcement.

Purpose: Rubber is widely used in tires, mechanical parts, and user goods where elasticity is necessary. Some essential features persist unsolved, primarily if they function in excessive mechanical properties. It is required to study elastomeric Rubber's performance, which is operational in high-level dynamic pressure and high tensile strength. These elastomeric aims to increase stress breaking and preserve highly pressurised tensile strength. Design/methodology/approach: The effects of carbon black polymer matrix on the tensile feature of different Rubber have been numerically investigated in this research. Rubber's material characteristics properties were measured using three different percentages (80%, 90%and 100%) of carbon black filler parts per Hundreds Rubber (pphr). Findings: This study found that the tensile strength and elongation are strengthened as the carbon black filler proportion increases by 30%. Practical implications: This research study experimental tests for Rubber within four hyperelastic models: Ogden's Model, Mooney-Rivlin Model, Neo Hooke Model, Arruda- Boyce Model obtain the parameters for the simulation of the material response using the finite element method (FEM) for comparison purposes. These four models have been extensively used in research within Rubber. The hyperelastic models have been utilised to predict the tensile test curves—the accurate description and prediction of elastomer rubber models. For four models, elastomeric material tensile data were used in the FEA package of Abaqus. The relative percentage error was calculated when predicting fitness in selecting the appropriate model—the accurate description and prediction of elastomer rubber models. For four models, elastomeric material tensile data were used in the FEA package of Abaqus. The relative percentage error was calculated when predicting fitness in selecting the appropriate model. Numerical Ogden model results have shown that the relative fitness error was the case with large strains are from 1% to 2.04%. Originality/value: In contrast, other models estimate parameters with fitting errors from 2.3% to 49.45%. The four hyperelastic models were tensile test simulations conducted to verify the efficacy of the tensile test. The results show that experimental data for the uniaxial test hyperelastic behaviour can be regenerated effectively as experiments. Ultimately, it was found that Ogden's Model demonstrates better alignment with the test data than other models.

Abstract The effects of percent fluorine, filler, and cure systems on the thermal and acid resistance of fluoroelastomers were evaluated over temperature ranges that would be typical of actual flue duct installations and accelerated conditions such as 275°C for thermal resistance and 149°C for concentrated sulfuric acid resistance. FKM 2176, which contains 65% fluorine by weight, became hard and brittle after two weeks of accelerated air aging at 275°C. The balance of physical properties of FKM 2176 were good when aged at 200°C. FKM 4894, which contains 67% fluorine by weight, retained useful properties after six weeks of accelerated air aging at 275°C. This indicates this material has improved properties for flue duct applications compared to FKM 2176. FKM 4894 filled with MT carbon black had improved retention of tensile strength after aging at 232°C relative to the FKM 4894 filled with SRF/HAF black, Austin Black and litharge. FKM 2176 was totally degraded after aging three days at 149°C in concentrated sulfuric acid. Aging of FKM 4894 in concentrated sulfuric acid at 149°C resulted in a loss of approximately 75 percent of the original tensile and an increase in the elongation, and the appearance of the exposed surface did not indicate chemical attack. Although FKM 4894 was superior to FKM 2176 when aged in sulfuric acid at 149°C, there was little difference between FKM 4894 and FKM 2176 when aged at 121 °C for up to four weeks or after eight weeks at 100°C in concentrated sulfuric acid. Austin Black showed the best retention of tensile of the four filler systems evaluated after aging at 100°C in concentrated sulfuric acid. FKM 4826, which contains 69% fluorine and is vulcanized using organic peroxide and triallyl isocyanurate, has indicated a compatibility with fiberglass that is superior to all fluorocarbon elastomer gums that were tested.

By using a semi-efficient sulphur vulcanisation system, the effects of alkanolamide (ALK) addition on cure characteristics, crosslink density and tensile properties of carbon black (CB)-filled styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) compounds were investigated. The ALK was prepared from Refined Bleached Deodorized Palm Stearin and diethanolamine and added into the CB-filled SBR compounds. The ALK loadings were 1.0, 3.0, 5.0 and 7.0 phr. It was found that ALK decreased the scorch and cure times of the CB-filled SBR compounds. ALK also improved the tensile modulus and tensile strength; especially up to a 5.0 phr of loading. The crosslink density measurement proved that the 5.0 phr of ALK exhibited the highest degree of crosslink density which caused the highest in tensile modulus and tensile strength. Due to its plasticity effect, ALK increased the elongation at break of the CB-filled SBR vulcanisates.
