Preparation and Properties of Rare Earth Modified Carbon Black/Natural Rubber Composites

The oxides Eu, Ho, Er and Dy were used to prepare the hydroxides of rare earth modified carbon black. Then natural rubber latex （NRL） was added into the reactor. The system reacted at 85 ℃ with stirring for 1 h to prepare powdered HAF-Ln（OH）3/NR composites. The effects of the kind and content of Ln on the particle size distribution of P [ NR/HAF-Ln （OH）3 ] and mechanical properties of its vulcanizate were studied respectively. It is found that rare earth can help to get the powder of the composite, the product particle with a diameter less than 0.9mm will be get when the composites containing the compound of Ho, Er and Dy with dosage of 1.0, 1.0, O. 5 percent, respectively. The adding of Ln can improve the tensile strength and tear strength of the vulcanizate effectively, what＇s more, Er and Dy can decrease the permanent set of vulcanizate significantly. The SEM studies shows that P[ NR/HAF-Dy （OH）3 ] vulcanizate shows superior mechanical properties that depend primarily on the absence of free carbon black, the fine dispersion of carbon black in the rubber matrix and better polymer-filler interaction.     

Thermal and thermoelastic properties of fast extrusion furnace (FEF) carbon black loaded SBR vulcanizates

The effect of FEF carbon black as filler on the thermal capacity c, diffusivity a, and thermal conductivity λ, of styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) composites in the temperature range 300–420 K was studied. The filler strongly increases the thermal diffusivity, whilst strongly decreasing the thermal capacity and the thermal conductivity (except at high FEF content ≥80 phr). The influence of the filler on the thermoelastic behaviour of the same composites was also investigated. It was found that the thermoelastic temperature change (ΔT) increased with carbon black concentration as well as the entropy change per unit extension.     

Pressure Response through Valve for Continuous Oil-Water Separation Based on a Flexible Superhydrophobic/Superoleophilic Thermoplastic Vulcanizate Film

Highly efficient oil-water separation shows urgent demand in industrial applications, especially in oil-spill accidents and organic solvent separation. Herein, a novel method is proposed for continuous oil-water separation by a pressure response through valve, which is loaded in a flexible convolute superhydrophobic/superoleophilic film based on low-density polyethylene (LDPE)/ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM) thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV). The superhydrophobic/superoleophilic LDPE/EPDM TPV film (with contact angles of oil and water are 0° and 161.9°± 2.2°) is prepared only via a molding process where sandpaper is used as the template. The superhydrophobic/superoleophilic property of the TPV film shows robust performance in the activity endurance test. More importantly, the flexible LDPE/EPDM TPV film can be easily rolled up and loaded in through valve, which is the pressure response channel in oil-water separation. The typical separation pressure of oil and water is 3.01 and 6.17 kPa, which means the oil can be completely separated from the oil-water mixture under proper pressure in the pressure response through valve.     

填料对反-1,4-聚异戊二烯性能的影响

研究了填料对反－1，4－聚异戊二烯（TPI）硫化胶和混炼胶的物理机械性能和结晶性能的影响。结果表明，在TPI中加入填料后，其硫化胶的300％定伸应力随填料用量的增加而增加，拉伸强度则在填料用量为20份时达到最大值；加入填料同时能降低TPI混炼胶的结晶度，填料用量增加，TPI混炼胶的结晶下降；且填料增强效果越好，结晶度下降越大。     

Natural rubber–ethylene‐propylene‐diene rubber covulcanization: Effect of reinforcing fillers

Filled covulcanizates of elastomer blend comprising natural rubber (NR) and ethylene‐propylene‐diene rubber (EPDM) of commercial importance were successfully prepared by using a multifunctional rubber additive; namely, bis(diisopropyl)thiophosphoryl disulfide (DIPDIS). A Two‐stage vulcanization technique further improved the physicochemical properties of the blend vulcanizates by restricting, through the formation of polar rubber bound intermediates, the migration of curative and filler from lower to highly unsaturated rubber. Scanning electron microscopy studies indicate homogeneity and coherency in the morphology of the two‐stage vulcanizates. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

甲基丙烯酸锌在NBR／木质素中的应用

研究了α－甲基丙烯酸锌（ＭＡＡ－Ｚｎ）对ＮＢＲ／木质素（１００／１００，质量比）硫化胶性能的影响。结果表明，加入１．５～５．０份ＭＡＡ－Ｚｎ，可提高硫化胺的１００％的定伸应力，硬度和抗压缩永久变形能力，但对其他力学性能影响甚微，经分析可知，ＭＡＡ－Ｚｎ还可以降低硫化反应活化能，提高硫化胶的交联密度和耐热老化性能。
