Four kinds of nano-sized calcium carbonate (CaCO3) surface-modified with stearic acid, aluminate, titanate and aluminate-titanate complex coupling agents, were used to reinforce natural rubber (NR)/styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) blends. The effects of surface modification and CaCO3 content on the cure characteristics, swelling behaviour, and mechanical properties of NR/SBR blends were studied. The surface modification of CaCO3 improved the processing and mechanical properties, and the stearic acid coated CaCO3 (SA-CaCO3) had finer dispersion and produced a better reinforcement effect than the other modified CaCO3. Furthermore, a commercial high abrasion furnace carbon black (HAF) was used for comparison. The results showed that both CaCO3 and HAF increased the cure rate, reduced the optimum cure time and improved the mechanical properties of NR/SBR blends at appropriate filler contents. The tensile strength of filled NR/SBR composites reached its maximum value when the SA-CaCO3 content was 50 phr or the HAF content was 30 phr. The modulus at 200%, tear strength, and Shore A hardness of filled NR/SBR composites all increased with increasing filler content. The CaCO3 reinforced the NR/SBR blends to some extent, though it was still not as effective as HAF.

Abstract Bis(3-triethoxysilylpropyl)tetrasulfide (TESPT) was found to affect the curing characteristics and the physical properties of styrene-butadiene (SBR) gum rubber and xin situ silica-filled SBR vulcanizates. Silica incorporated by the in situ sol-gel reaction of tetraethoxysilane with TESPT showed a much higher reinforcing efficiency than did conventional mechanical mixing and the in situ method without TESPT. The higher reinforcing efficiency is attributed to the formation of a silica-rubber network, which also changed the dynamic mechanical behavior of the SBR vulcanizates. Transmission electron microscopy observations showed in situ silica incorporation of very fine particles in comparison to the sol-gel process without TESPT.

The reinforcement of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4) grafted styrene butadiene rubber (SBR-g-D4) with in situ generated silica was performed using the sol–gel reaction of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) in latex.
