Layered double hydroxides (LDHs)/SBS modified bitumens used for waterproofing membrane were prepared by melt blending using various contents of SBS and LDHs. Effects of the LDHs on physical properties and thermal oxidative aging performance of modified bitumen were investigated. The results show that softening point and low temperature flexibility of LDHs/SBS modified bitumen are increased simultaneously with the rise of SBS content, while they are little affected by the change of LDHs content. The thermal oxidative aging resistance of SBS modified bitumen is gradually improved with increasing LDHs content. In addition, the aging rate of SBS modified bitumen with LDHs are evidently lower than that without LDHs over time, which indicates that LDHs improve the ability of SBS modified bitumen to resist the thermal oxidative aging effectively.

Abstract It was shown in Part I that the use of EV systems in NR provides a simple network in which the crosslinks are mainly monosulfidic. Part II describes in some detail the properties of vulcanizates obtained by the use of EV systems and their relationship to conventional and TMTD-zinc oxide cured vulcanizates. The disadvantages of short scorch time and heavy bloom which accompany the TMTD-zinc oxide system are overcome by the new EV systems. The monosulfidic network obtained by the use of EV systems confers on NR good overall physical properties together with much improved resistance towards thermal and thermal oxidative aging. The thermal stability of this type of network is reflected in the outstanding resistance of the vulcanizates to set and reversion, and their good resistance to heat build-up under dynamic conditions. Vulcanizates derived from EV systems have increased resistance to thermal oxidative aging due to the inherent thermal stability of the networks and good response to antioxidant protection. This increased resistance results in much better retention of tensile properties, tear resistance and fatigue cracking resistance on aging, relative to that of conventionally cured vulcanizates.

The effects of thermal cycling on a polymerized monomeric reactant (PMR) type polyimide (TriA X) reinforced with carbon fibers were investigated. Composite specimens were subjected to 2000 thermal cycles between −54°C and 232°C. At 400-cycle intervals, laminates were inspected for microcracks, and glass transition temperature ( T g) and short-beam shear (SBS) strength were measured. The composites did not exhibit microcracks after thermal cycling, although after 2000 thermal cycles, mechanical properties of the matrix declined slightly. The matrix degradation decreased the resistance to microcracking upon further loading. No effects of thermal oxidative aging were observed from thermal cycling, and thermally driven fatigue and creep were identified as the primary and secondary factors inducing mechanical degradation of the matrix. T g of the composites exhibited no change after 2000 cycles, while the SBS strength decreased slightly (3–9%). The results highlight the potential for use of TriA X composites as long-term structural components in high-temperature service environments.
