Microstructure and Basic Properties of Domestic Butyl Rubber 1751
The characterization of microstructure and basic properties of domestic butyl rubber 1751 ( IIR 1751) was performed with different testing , such as 1H-NMR spectrum, gel permeation chromatography, dynamic mechanical analysis, thermal gravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimeter. And the comparison with Butyl 268 and Butyl 301 was made. The results showed that IIR1751 had a narrower molecular mass distribution, lower number-average molecular mass and lower weight-average molecular mass. The unsaturation degree of IIR1751 was close to Butyl 268 and Butyl 301. Its thermal stability was higher than the other and its ash content and volatile matter content was lower. Its glass transition temperature was same to Butyl 268’s, which was slightly higher than the Butyl 301. Dispersion of carbon black in IIR1751 vulcanizates was poor, but IIR1751 vulcanizates had good processing property, had a longer scorch safety period and fast curing rate. Its fatigue performance was good and its mechanical properties can achieve a better balance.
