Abstract Increased time of mixing carbon black-rubber vulcanizates reduces dynamic modulus and dynamic viscosity as well as phase angle at moderate amplitudes of oscillation. Changes in dynamic properties with mixing time are shown to be associated with dispersion of carbon black.

Abstract The effect of carbon-black structures in rubber were studied using dynamic testing techniques. The aspects studied were the effects of the degree of vulcanization and the degree of dispersion on dynamic modulus and loss. Relationships were established between electrical conductivity and dynamic modulus, and between the maximum dynamic viscosity and the carbon-black modulus changes on oscillation. Finally, use was made of carbon-black/paraffin-oil mixtures as model materials in order to explain the effect of carbon-black structures on the modulus enhancement of carbon-black-loaded vulcanizates.

Natural Rubber Vulcanizates

Abstract The dynamic properties of a natural vulcanized rubber containing carbon black were studied for dynamic tensions of amplitude varying greatly. It was shown that both the elastic responses and viscosity change with amplitude of oscillation and with concentration and type of carbon black. The effects of thermal treatment on the dynamic modulus were also studied. Beginning with conditions of equilibrium between the hard and soft regions of the vulcanizate for very weak stresses, the values for the formation of hard regions from soft regions were determined by means of the Van't Hoff isochore.

Fiber Extraction

Cores and slabs of fiber-modified asphalt overlay were taken from a series of test sections constructed on two highways in Indiana. Extensive laboratory investigations were conducted to evaluate the fiber-modified asphalt mixtures. Laboratory tests included physical properties, beam fatigue, and complex modulus. Because of a lack of a standard method for fiber extraction, three fiber extraction methods were evaluated. Test results show that more than 95 percent of fiber can be extracted from paving mixtures. Actual fiber contents in test sections were found to be different from target fiber contents by a significant amount. Physical property tests show that the addition of fibers is related to a higher percentage of air voids in the in situ pavement. Results of fatigue tests indicate that fibers increase the fatigue life of overlay mixture. There are inconsistencies in the significance of fiber on both dynamic modulus and phase angle. However, the results do indicate that the addition of fibers will change the viscoelastic properties of mixtures. There is no statistical difference in dynamic modulus and phase angle among the mixtures with different fiber contents.

Dynamic Modulus Of Elasticity

Abstract The purpose of the investigation described in this paper was to obtain information concerning the dynamic properties of rubber bonded to metal. Two properties of rubber were measured (a) the internal damping and (b) the dynamic modulus of elasticity. Two types of specimens were tested (a) rubber cylinders bonded to steel cylinders at the ends and stressed in compression and (b) specimens of rubber bonded to steel and stressed in shear. All specimens were of the same stock, 5140-V-4, manufactured by the U. S. Rubber Company. The hardness, as measured by the durometer, varied from 32 to 40. In the process of bonding to the steel, a 1/32-in. layer of 60-durometer stock was added adjacent to each piece of steel. This represents standard practice of the U. S. Rubber Company in bonding soft stock to metal. All specimens were cured for 30 min at 279 F.

Scale Roughness

ABSTRACTA mathematical analysis of surfaces may help to understand how the carbon black is dispersed into polymer. Rubber samples are broken out, and the rupture interface is scanned with a prolometer. The roughness is detected at the micron scale. Roughness functions are dened, measuring the average oscillations of the surface. The roughness behaviour is “fractal” for small scales until around 10 microns, then become linear. A roughness ratio is defined, depending both on the scale and on the mixing time. There is evidence to suggest that the roughness ratio does not depend on the polymer, but only on the dispersion of the filler. A dispersion factor is derived, and results are shown on three diserent compounds.

To study the mechanical properties of high modulus asphalt mixtures, dynamic modulus and phase angle of these two mixtures are tested with Simple Performance Testing System under different temperatures, loading frequencies and confining pressures. Testing results show the superiority of high modulus asphalt mixture in aspect of high temperature performance. Furthermore, the changing rules of dynamic modulus and phase angle are also discussed.

Abstract Important factors of potential use for manipulating static and dynamic stiffness and the damping characteristics of compounds based on styrene-butadiene and polybutadiene elastomers and their blends have been outlined. Their characteristics have been compared with those of IIR and EPDM compounds. The effects of variations in composition are quantitatively defined to assist the compounder in combining these effects in a manner that will lead to a desired combination of properties. In addition to the expected increase in static spring rate and dynamic spring rate with carbon black level, the following responses to compositional variations were found important: 1. The complex dynamic spring rate is more sharply dependent upon carbon black level than the static spring rate. 2. The complex dynamic spring rate is essentially independent of the level of crosslinking while static spring rate increases. 3. Damping coefficient is directly proportional to the level of carbon black and inversely proportional to the level of crosslinking. 4. Styrene level in a polymer blend and plasticizer composition can be used to adjust loss modulus and storage modulus at a given temperature and also to modify the rate of change of these properties with temperature. 5. The strain dependency of storage modulus was found in one instance to vary with the elastomer composition. The IIR vulcanizate, when formulated to the same static modulus, exhibited a larger strain dependence than the SBR, BR, and EPDM composition.
