A novel green approach for the preparation of high performance nitrile butadiene rubber-pristine graphene nanocomposites

Abstract Hydrogenated-Nitrile-Butadiene-Rubber (HNBR) is known for its good physical strength. It is a widely used rubber in electrical insulation and other high performance applications. Performance of HNBR is affected in high temperature and an aggressive fluid environment. Adding silica to HNBR may overcome this problem. In order to investigate the effect of fluids and temperature on HNBR/silica composites we prepared multiple composites of HNBR with 8.3, 16.7, 33.4, 50 and 66.7 phr of silica (SiO2) by two roll compounding method. Swelling index and thermo gravimetric analyses were performed. Calculations of swelling indexes were performed at different time periods with ethanol, toluene and water. For thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), thermo grams of samples were obtained and % char yields at 550 °C were analyzed for all samples. Improvements with the addition of silica were recorded up to a great extent in both analyses. Swelling index decreased with the addition of silica as compared to neat HNBR and reached an optimum position with 50 phr silica loading in ethanol, 8.3 phr in water and 66.7 phr in toluene. Moreover, the HNBR composite with 66.7 phr of silica was found to be the highest thermally stable sample and lost less than 60% of weight at 550 °C in comparison to neat HNBR in which 80% of weight loss occurred at 550 °C.

Penelitian ini untuk mengetahui pengaruh penambahan Natural Rubber (NR) dan Epoxidation Natural Rubber (ENR-46) dengan kompatibiliser Chlorprene Rubber (CR) pada aplikasi kompon termoplastik Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) dan Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR), variabel penelitian meliputi ENR-46/PVC/NBR/CR, NR/PVC/NBR/CR dan CR-NR/PVC/NBR, CR-ENR-46/PVC/NBR. Parameter pengujian sifat fisik-mekanik : Hardness (Shore A), Tensile Strength (Mpa), Elongation at Break (%) dan ketahanan terhadap pelarut minyak (n-Pentane, Toluene, Hexane dan Pertalite). Hasil penelitian didapatkan untuk sifat fisik-mekanik, semakin banyak penambahan NR Kekerasan kompon termoplastik akan menurun, Tensile Strength dan Elongation at Break kompon akan meningkat begitu juga dengan CR-NR. Tetapi berbanding terbalik hasilnya untuk ENR-46 dan CR-ENR-46. Pengujian Ketahanan terhadap pelarut minyak semakin banyak penambahan ENR-46 Ketahanan kompon termoplastik terhadap pelarut akan meningkat, hasil yang sama juga pada CR-ENR-46. Tetapi berbanding terbalik hasilnya dengan penambahan NR dan CR-NR pada kompon termoplastik.
