Abstract Nitrile butadiene rubber latex (NBRL) based gasket materials were extensively used in the past due to their excellent oil resistance, good abrasion resistance, and shock absorption as well as good high-temperature stability. Recently, carbon black has been introduced to further improve the oil absorption properties and thermal performance of the gasket materials which increased the total costing and makes the processing difficult due to the agglomeration of carbon black in NBRL. Thus, in this research, waste tire powder (WTP) was introduced to develop high-performance coating materials as an alternative to carbon black in NBRL gasket material. Optimization of new compounding formulation has been carried out by manipulating the WTP loading and hybrid WTP-carbon black filler loading. The filler loading was selected based on the desired surface texture and coating thickness. The experience was also carried out by varying the WTP, Sulphur, and plasticizer loading. The desired surface texture and thickness of coating materials were developed at WTP loading of 80phr and 90phr. Whereas, the optimum Sulphur loading was achieved at 1phr - 2phr, and plasticizer loading of 10phr and 15phr. From the experiments carried out, the optimum loading of WTP was 90phr which gives a fully contained gasket composite. Furthermore, DOP optimum loading is 15phr which gives a smooth surface appearance. Lastly, Sulphur with 1phr gives a more even surface texture as compared to 2phr loading.

Organoclay nanoparticles (Cloisite® C10A, Cloisite® C15) and their combination with carbon black (N330) were studied as fillers in chloroprene/natural/butadiene rubber blends to prepare nanocomposites. The effect of filler type and load on the physical mechanical properties of nanocomposites was determined and correlated with its structure, compatibility and cure properties using Fourier Transformed Infrared (FT-IR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and rheometric analysis. Physical mechanical properties were improved by organoclays at 5–7 phr. Nanocomposites with organoclays exhibited a remarkable increase up to 46% in abrasion resistance. The improvement in properties was attributed to good organoclay dispersion in the rubber matrix and to the compatibility between them and the chloroprene rubber. Carbon black at a 40 phr load was not the optimal concentration to interact with organoclays. The present study confirmed that organoclays can be a reinforcing filler for high performance applications in rubber nanocomposites.

The energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission of asphalt pavement have become a very serious global problem. The high-temperature stability and durability of polyurethane (PU) are very good. It is studied as an alternative binder for asphalt recently. However, the strength-forming mechanism and the mixture structure of the PU mixture are different from the asphalt mixture. This work explored the design and performance evaluation of the PU mixture. The PU content of mixtures was determined by the creep slope (K), tensile strength ratios (TSR), immersion Cantabro loss (ICL), and the volume of air voids (VV) to ensure better water stability. The high- and low-temperature stability, water stability, dynamic mechanical property, and sustainability of the PU mixture were evaluated and compared with those of the stone matrix asphalt mixture (SMA). The test results showed that the dynamic stability and bending strain of the PU mixture were about 7.5 and 2.3 times of SMA. The adhesion level of PU and the basalt aggregate was one level greater than the limestone, and basalt aggregates were proposed to use in the PU mixture to improve water stability. Although the initial TSR and ICL of PU mixture were lower, the long-term values were higher; the PUM had better long-term water damage resistance. The dynamic modulus and phase angles (φ) of the PU mixture were much higher. The energy consumption and CO2 emission of the PU mixture were lower than those of SMA. Therefore, the cold-mixed PU mixture is a sustainable material with excellent performance and can be used as a substitute for asphalt mixture.

In response to increasingly stringent requirements for the sustainability and environmental friendliness of the rubber industry, the application and development of bio-based elastomers have received extensive attention. In this work, we prepared a new type of bio-based elastomer poly(dibutyl itaconate-butadiene) copolymer (PDBIB) nanocomposite using carbon black and non-petroleum-based silica with a coupling agent. Using dynamic thermodynamic analysis (DMTA) and scanning electron microscope (SEM), we studied the effects of feed ratio on dynamic mechanical properties, micro morphology, and filler dispersion of PDBIB composites. Among them, silica-reinforced PDBIB60 (weight ratio of dibutyl itaconate to butadiene 40/60) and carbon black-reinforced PDBIB70 (weight ratio of dibutyl itaconate to butadiene 30/70) both showed excellent performance, such as tensile strength higher than 18 MPa and an elongation break higher than 400%. Compared with the widely used ESBR, the results showed that PDBIB had better rolling resistance and heat generation than ESBR. In addition, considering the development of green tires, we compared it with the solution polymerized styrene–butadiene rubber with better comprehensive performance, and analyzed the advantages of PDBIB and the areas to be improved. In summary, PDBIB prepared from bio-based monomers had superior performance and is of great significance for achieving sustainable development, providing a direction for the development of high-performance green tire and holding great potential to replace petroleum-derived elastomers.

Abstract The importance of fluorine in polymer chemistry has been known since the discovery of poly (tetrafluoroethylene) in 1938. Highly fluorinated polymers are very stable and have remarkable resistance to oxidative attack, flame, chemicals, and solvents. This stability has been attributed to the strength of the carbon—fluorine bond compared to that of the carbon—carbon bond, to steric hindrance, and to strong Van der Waals forces. The synthesis of elastomeric polymers containing enough fluorine to impart a significant degree of stability was not achieved until the mid-1950's. Since then a multitude of fluoroelastomers have been reported, but, of these, only certain copolymers of vinylidene fluoride, and fluorosilicone polymers have become commercially important. Recently, however, perfluoroelastomers based on perfluoro (alkyl vinyl ethers) and tetrafluoroethylene have been shown to possess an even greater degree of high temperature stability than do the fluoroelastomers hitherto available. These perfluoroelastomers also are essentially inert to most chemicals and solvents. Copolymers of perfluoro (alkyl vinyl ethers) with partially fluorinated monomers also have been developed that give better flexibility at low temperature. These polymers, now at the developmental stage, appear to be the forerunners of a new generation of superior high-performance elastomers. The discussion that follows will concern firstly, the commercial fluoroelastomers; secondly, those that show commercial promise and might be considered semi-commercial or at the developmental stage but which are available only in limited developmental quantities; and thirdly, those reported in the literature that, so far at least, have been of research interest only. In this last category, polymers will not be included which contain so little fluorine that performance characteristics are not substantially enhanced. For example fluoroprene [poly(2-fluorobutadiene)] and copolymers with nonfluorinated, olefin monomers in which the latter predominate will not be included.

The blend of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and polybenzimidazole (PBI) produces a high-performance blend (PPB) that is a potential replacement material in several industries due to its high temperature stability and desirable tribological properties. Understanding the nanoscale structure and interface of the two domains of the blend is critical for elucidating the origin of these desirable properties. Whilst achieving the physical characterisation of the domain structures is relatively uncomplicated, the elucidation of structures at the interface presents a significant experimental challenge. In this work, we combine atomic force microscopy (AFM) with an IR laser (AFM-IR) and thermal cantilever probes (nanoTA) to gain insights into the chemical heterogeneity and extent of mixing within the blend structure for the first time. The AFM-IR and nanoTA measurements show that domains in the blend are compositionally different from those of the pure PEEK and PBI polymers, with significant variations observed in a transition region several microns wide in proximity to domain boundary. This strongly points to physical mixing of the two components on a molecular scale at the interface. The versatility intrinsic to the combined methodology employed in this work provides nano- and microscale chemical information that can be used to understand the link between properties of different length scales across a wide range of materials.

Mechanical alloying, originally developed as a means to produce oxide dispersion strengthened alloys, has since been adopted for producing a wide variety of materials such as solid solution alloys, metal matrix composites, intermetallics, nanocrystalline and amorphous materials. It has also demonstrated as an efficient method for alloying gaseous elements by solid-gas reaction. Interest in using metal and metalloid nitrides as coating materials has been increased considerably in the past few years because of their special properties including extreme hardness, high temperature stability, high corrosion and wear resistance, and excellent conductivity. A new coating technique through the marriage of mechanical plating and nitriding has recently been developed in this laboratory. This paper presents an electron microscopic study of mechanically plated Ti and TiN coating.Commercially produced (Johnson Matthey, Inc.) fine-grained (325 mesh, or 44 μm) Ti (99%) powders were used as the starting coating material. Interstitial-free steel sheet (provided by Inland Steel) were cut to a size of 1.5 cm × 1.5 cm as the substrate.

Si Addition

The increasing demand for high-performance current collectors of lithium ion secondary batteries requires that the employed aluminum alloys have better mechanical properties and superior electrochemical performance. The effect of Si addition on the microstructure, tensile and electrochemical performance of Al-Fe-Cu-La alloy was investigated by optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, a tensile test, conductivity test and Tafel polarization curve test. Experimental results indicated that Si addition to the Al-Fe-Cu-La alloy helped to refine the longitudinal grain size of the alloy. The Si-containing phase (AlFeSi) nucleated and grew along the surface of the AlFeLa phase. The Si addition to the Al-Fe-Cu-La alloy could greatly increase the tensile strength in the temperature range of −20 °C to 50 °C and improve high temperature stability of the alloy. Also, the addition of Si promoted the formation of the AlFeSi ternary phase, which helped to improve the corrosion resistance of the alloy.
