Magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) that consists of matrix materials and magnetic particles is a kind of smart material, whose mechanical properties were controllable under external magnetic field. In this work, natural rubber (NR)/polybutadiene rubber (BR) hybrid matrix-based MRE was prepared. The compatibility of NR and BR was studied by experiment and molecular dynamic (MD) simulation. The hybrid matrix was prepared using the physical mixing method. The characterization results showed that BR had excellent compatibility with NR. The measurement result using rheometer showed that the MR effect can be increased to 44.19% by the addition of BR. Dynamic mechanical analysis showed that the hybrid matrix formed a homogeneous system when the ratio of BR and NR is 1:9 and 3:7. The MD simulation showed that the BR and NR are compatible and the cohesive energy density of hybrid matrix was smaller than BR and NR. The cohesive energy density of hybrid matrix was increased with the increase of BR.

Abstract Magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) is a new kind of smart materials whose mechanical properties can be controlled under external magnetic field and it is mainly consist of matrix materials and magnetic particles. In this work, the natural rubber (NR)/polybutadiene rubber (BR) hybrid matrix based MRE were prepared and the compatibility of NR and BR were studied. The hybrid matrix was prepared by physical mixing method. The characterization results showed that the BR had excellent compatibility with NR. The measurement result using rheological showed that the MR effect can be increased to 44.19% by adding of BR. The dynamic thermomechanical analysis showed that the hybrid matrix formed a homogeneous system when the ratio of BR and NR is 1/9 and 3/7. The particles was mixed with matrix using physical technology. The process of mixing was analyzed by numerical simulation. The simulation result showed that the increase of diameter of particles would increase the temperature and velocity of matrix in mixing. The particles was distributed evenly at enough mixing time and the mixing time was decreased with the diameter of particles.

Cohesive Energy Density

Abstract Stable vulcanizates of copolymers of propylene oxide and butadiene monoxide have been prepared and some physical properties studied. The cohesive energy density of a copolymer containing 84 per cent propylene oxide is determined from swelling measurements to be 83 cal cm−. The dynamic properties of the copolymer are similar to those of natural rubber. From a thermodynamic point of view the copolymer is more ideal in its rubbery behavior than natural rubber.

A Value

Abstract The entropy of swelling of vulcanized rubber is estimated, and assumed independent of the nature of the swelling liquid. The heat of swelling is related to the cohesive energy of the liquid, and a value of 66 calories per cc. deduced for the cohesive energy density of rubber. The swelling power of a liquid can be calculated approximately if its cohesive energy and molecular volume are known. Substantial agreement with theory is found in most cases, although it is necessary to consider aliphatic and aromatic liquids separately. The anomalously high swelling power of acids and alcohols arises from their association.
