AbstractIn this study, hydrogels of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) with different cross-link density were prepared by the free-radical polymerization method. l-Cystine, which acts as a cross-linker, was prepared at different concentrations, ranging from 0.02 to 0.08 mol/l, to identify the concentration that provided the highest mechanical strength and healing efficacy. Healing of the hydrogels was achieved by heating above their glass transition temperature. Intermolecular diffusion of the dangling chain or chain slippage led to the healing of the gels. Results showed that 0.04 mol/l of l-cystine in poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) hydrogels provided the highest ultimate tensile strength (0.780 N/mm2) and healing recovery (92%). This healing capability was also observed using optical microscopy.

The work studies vulcanization characteristics of elastomers based on isoprene rubber filled with carbon black N330 and boron nitride (BN). The influence of the boron nitride (BN) concentration on technological, dynamic, physical and mechanical properties of elastomers has been researched. The application of boron nitride for producing rubber with good properties has been considered. With a gradual increase of the inert filler BN concentration up to 35%, a decrease in the curing rate by 33% and polymer cross-link density by 26% is observed. Moreover, the start time of vulcanization increases by almost 300%, the optimal curing time by 200%.
