The Research on Relationship between Heat Generation and Crosslinking Density of Vulcanized Rubber

Abstract:

Crosslinking density of vulcanized rubber which was filled with carbon black and silica was experimentally researched, and its corresponding heat generation, dynamic lag loss (tanδ) and loss modulus ( E″) were also studied. Based on these tests, the model of the relationship among them was established. The results showed that the characteristic value of crosslinking density Vr almost showed downward trend as a straight line when the quantity of silica increased, but temperature rise, loss modulus E″ and tanδ increased obviously. Silane coupling agent Si-69 could improve the crosslink density and dynamic performance. In the drawing, linear correlation was good in linear fitting between temperature rise and loss modulus, as well as between temperature rise and tanδ.
